  There was a suggestion made a short while ago to use ResEdit or equivelent
to modify the name the created file to include a folder (path) name.  Where
the LaserWriter driver specifies PostScript (ie. for PostScript0), I changed
it to 'Hard Disk:PostScript Files:PostScript', which results in all created
postscript files going in one location.  No problems encountered so far.
