This whole thing bothers me. People should not be making big bucks
off programming languages, page description languages, etc. I hope
GNU is listening. How about putting more effort into Ghostscript ?!

I resent it when I have to pay Adobe $1000.00 to get Postscript in
my printer, then I have to pay them again to get the matching
screen fonts. I'm sure the situation won't be much different with
Microsoft or Apple. Hurry GNU, Hurry....
