Does anyone know of a version of GhostScript 1.4 which has been 
compiled for MS-DOS?  We have been using version 1.3 (available from
the Simtel archives) for several months to preview graphs rendered
in postscript before inclusion in LaTeX (PCTeX).  It would be nice to  
be able to view them *after* including them, too, to check on the
placement without wasting paper.

Thanks for any help.
