- Can this be done with the utils that come with Linux SLS?
-
- Take a file that is in Postscript (and displays under GS) and convert
- it to something else, such as TeX or dvi or groff, and then run it
- back through the appropriate processor to make it back into postscript?
-
- No, this isn't CPU exercise. GS displays the file, but the only
- postscript printer I have access to bombs out when trying to convert
- the PS to a form the printer understands (Stupid IBM VM/CMS). So
- can this be done? (Cause the printer will print stuff I have generated
- under groff)
-
- Thanks...

- microwave oven. Real programmers use the heat given off by the cpu.
- They can tell what job is running just by listening to the rate of popping.
