In order to improve the graphic output of an X application, I would like
to use the Display PostScript system as an extension of the X Window System,
Version 11.

I don't want a *simple previewer* but rather an interactive system with X11 
equivalent of stuff like QueryTextExtents (for formatting capability)
or location problem (is this point in this path) .

I've already got all the DPS documentation, and now I would like to know if
the system would *really* exist one day ? (Hey DEC!)

My question is: "Can I plan to have it for my project this year(1989)?"
(I'm ready to buy the workstation coming with).

Thanks for direct responses or pointers.
