My PostScript previewer was posted to comp.sources.unix before Christmas.

Unfortunately, I let it out with a makefile set up to use a local graphics
library available only to UK Academics (WW).
If you 'make sunPS', it makes a version for sun displays which writes
straight on the frame buffer.
I have posted a driver written by Terry Weissman for X11 to comp.sources.unix,
which should appear shortly.

In the US, the interpreter can be FTPed from:

mimsy.umd.edu (Milnet East coast)

and

parcvax.xerox.com (Arpanet, west coast).

called:

PSPreviewer.tar.Z (compressed tar format).

Ftpable copies are available in England from the Shareware sites:

	uk.ac.ukc|University of Kent at Canterbury Computer Lab:
		address=info-server@ukc.ac.uk:mode=automatic:type=1

Other sites may have copies.
