Hi,

is there anobody, who has integrated Ghostscript as PS-Printer for OS/2.

I think of something like: Conifgure PS-Printer with no LPTn, but ouput to
a file; test every n seconds if there is something in the file, if yes,
start Ghostscript.

Problem is to synchronize the printing and Ghostscript; perhaps it's good
to use a Named-Pipe (possible ?).

Please post or send suggestions !
(I'm using ghost for DOS, but that doesn't matter, I think !)

Thanks in advance,
