- I find Ghostcript for Windows very useful and so far able to handle all
- of the PostScript that I have thrown at it.
-
- I havn't used GhostView at all - does it have any search facilities?
- If so this would be a nice tool to have under Windows - particularly
- for viewing online documentation provided in PostScript format ;).
-
- I look forward to someone porting it!
