   Anybody want to shut NeXT users like this guy up with respect to 
Display PostScript?  I have "yet another Amiga program request".  

   I'd like to see someone write a new console device that includes 
PostScript support via the 2620 version of the post.library (from 
POST version 1.3, which is available on abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov).
This shouldn't be too write (at least for experienced Amiga device 
programmers) because most of the necessary routines are right in 
the library.

   If such a new console device, with PostScript support, were written,
it would essentially bring Display PostScript to the Amiga.  Any 
programs that open the new 'postcon:' as its console device would be
to have Display PostScript capabilities.  There would be a problem
with what would happen if ANSI codes were sent to the device, but
this could be solved by (1) ignoring the ANSI codes or (2) supporting
them as in the normal console devices.

   So, how's about it?  Surely there has to be someone 'out there'
who's up to a challenge, and who has plenty of time to waste!  (Insert
smilies liberally throughout this paragraph :-)
