A recent posting on this newsgroup asked about the availability of
Ghostscript for MS Windows 3.0.

Ghostscript will run with no trouble under the "DOS prompt" feature
of Windows.  It can also be launched from within Windows, but it
takes over the entire screen.

I don't have Microsoft C or a Windows SDK.  When Borland comes out
with a Windows SDK for Turbo C, I'll probably write a Windows driver
for Ghostscript if the SDK doesn't cost too much.  If someone else
wants to do this, I'd be happy to distribute it with the Ghostscript
sources.
