I'm trying to take a screen dump from a DECstation 3100 and get it onto
a Macintosh.  There are 3 formats in which I can dump the screen on the
3100: Postscript, DDIF, and Sixel.  I've successfully taken a Postscript
dump from the 3100 and imported it into several applications on the Mac
and printed it.  The problem is that I want to be able to see/manipulate
the picture on the Mac.  Is there any application that would let me do this?
Is there anyway I could convert the postscript to a bitmap (ie. PICT or such)
that I could manipulate with MacPaint?  Any help/suggestions would be
appreciated.

Thanks
/Matt
