Hi,

For those who downloaded the beta version of GS 2.52 only to find out
that 8-bit color didn't work, there is now a new executable on
lifshitz.ph.utexas.edu (/pub/atari/ghostscript/beta/gsfix.zoo) that has
at least one 8-bit bug fixed. The archive containing GS support files
also contains the updated executable. So, if you tried 8-bit color and
got two bombs, you might want to try again. Due to the fact that I
cannot test 8-bit color on my ST, I still don't know whether this fixed
code works.

Also, GS 2.52 contains a fax driver which I modified slightly to produce
(supposedly standard) G3 format. I would like to hear whether anyone
is able to use this output.
