I noticed it in Crispin Goswells code, which I got off a local BBS. It is a PS interpreter written of Sun's, in 'C' from Rutherford Labs, in England. I didn't want to plagerize his code, and would like to find a ref to the algorythm. > > Regards, > > Kok Chen kchen@apple.COM, kk6dp > Apple Computer, Inc. Much thanks. No, I'm not working on a postscript interpreter. I am, however working on a spline drawing program similar to A&L, and Illustrator, that does not require MS windows, and is a much smaller subset of A&L and Illustratir I just need a simple draw spline, move spline in real time routine. The code posted is what I am currently using, and it is SLOW and very non-optimal. I will grab some of these references and look them over. As an additional question, who knows about the "consortium" of font vendors that are reported to be pushing for font control legislation? Apparently there was an article in info world, and I'd like a pointer to it.
