- in v7n149 David Classen (dclassen@vulture.bcm.tmc.edu) asks a question:
-
- > I am looking for a PostScript previewer for SunView.
-
- so apparently is everybody else. here is our answer the one of the most
- often asked questions on the net: first get Crispin Goswells'
- PostScript(R) interpreter from your favorite comp.sources.unix archive
- (uunet.uu.net [192.12.141.129] is one). it's in 18 parts in volume 12.
- then apply the speed ups, bug fixes and enhancements found on
- z.andrew.cmu.edu [128.2.30.8] in psdiff/ps.diff.v[123]. then apply our
- patch to pixwin.c to make it work correctly:
- __________
-
- ***************
- *** 402,408 ****
- case ROP_NOTDEST: op = PIX_NOT (PIX_SRC); break;
- case ROP_TRUE: op = PIX_SET; break;
- }
- + bm = Pixrect_addr (to);
- rop = rop_map [rop];
- UpdateControl (to, FALSE);
- for (i = top; i < height; i++)
- __________
-
- if you want to preview Scribe(R) output feed the output to sed with the
- following script:
-
- __________
-
- cat scribe.ps |\
- sed -e "/^\% Unilogic\/Scribe version of LaserPrep v4.0/,/^\%\%EndProlog/ d" >\
- scribe.ps.good
- __________
-
- this stuff works for us. hope it does for you too. maybe Mr. LeFebvre
- can collect all the other PostScript info and have available for everybody
- to get at when the question comes up again, as it certainly will.
