A major upgrade of the GhostScript package is now available.  I picked
up a copy, version 2.4, via ftp from prep.ai.mit.edu in directory
pub/gnu.  GhostScript allows one to preview postscript files on a
variety of platforms, including MS-DOS.

The MS-DOS executables include a module for 386 machines.  Version 2.4
now allows loading any outline fonts, not just the single generic font
available in earlier versions of this program.

You'll need three files---one containing the fonts, one for the MS-DOS
executables, and one for the documentation and source files.  These
are big files.  Fonts requires about 2.2 meg, and the others about
1.25 meg, so make sure there is enough room on your target machine.
