- Hello * !
-
- I promised to make Ghostscript 2.4.1 (delivered with the etc01 distribution
- of 386BSD) available for anon-ftp. Finally, I managed to do a upload to
- the nearest ftp-site. This version of gs includes drivers for epson printers,
- HP paintjet printers, X11 (XFree86) and the drivers for low- and high-resolution
- fax formats. (I am still working on netfax for 386BSD).
- The file is on:
- hasler.ascom.ch:pub/gs2.4.1-bin.386bsd.tar.Z
- It includes the gs2.4.1 binary, the makefile (to let you see what is really
- included) and a short README.
- It doesn't include the fonts. They should be available from different ftp-sites.
- I didn't try the new fonts which came with the newer versions of ghostscript
- (2.5.1 or 2.5.2).
- hasler.ascom.ch is 139.79.129.1
- I will build a boot-image with the new SCSI-drivers, terry's patchkit applied
- (and corrected for the introduced "slip" TCP/IP bug) and the new boot-blocks
- and load that to the same system in the same directory. This will be available
- tomorrow morning (MEZ or CET or MET that is).
-
- Have fun with gs 2.4.1 (it works for me in the XFree86 environment and seems
- to work more or less with netfax).
-
- Norbert Bladt.
-
- P.S. If you have problems with the ftp-site please mail-me and I will try to
- contact the sys-op.
