I own a NeXT and am used to making wraps of PostScript code, generating C files to use in my graphics programs. Is there some way to do the same sort of thing on the DEC Stations. Display PostScript is part of UWS (ULTRIX Workstation Software) 4.2, and you should be able to port your code from the NeXT with little or no modification. I think the only difference is that the NeXT Display PostScript supports the setalpha/currentalpha operators, which are not part of the standard PostScript language. Get some documentation from DEC, and/or pick up a copy of Display PostScript Programming by David A. Holzgang. This should get you starting compiling and building your DPS programs. -pd
