Added: 07/08/02 To view PostScript files, install the GhostScript package as well as the GhostView (gv) package. Then you can use gv (an X app) to display .ps files. To print PostScript (.ps) files, it is necessary to have a PostScript-compatible printer. If you do have a PostScript printer, simply use the ‘lp’ command as follows: $ lp foo.ps If you do not, there are public domain programs, for example, ghostscript, that can convert PostScript to other printer languages such as PCL. —————————— Subject: 5.
