What is the Ghostscript Interpreter API?
The Ghostscript interpreter can be built as a dynamic link library (DLL) on the Windows or OS/2 platforms, as a shared object on the Linux platform and as a framework on MacOS X. With some changes, it could be built as a static library. This document describes the Application Programming Interface (API) for the Ghostscript interpreter library. This should not be confused with the Ghostscript library which provides a graphics library but not the interpreter. This supercedes the old DLL interface. To provide the interface described in the usage documentation, a smaller independent executable loads the DLL/shared object. This executable provides all the interaction with the windowing system, including image windows and, if necessary, a text window. The Ghostscript interpreter library’s name and characteristics differ for each platform: • The Win32 DLL gsdll32.dll has MULTIPLE NONSHARED data segments. Under Win32s it can be used by only one program at a time, but under Windows 95/98 or Win
