The MSDOS program gs386.exe shows the lower left corner
of a postscript page. How is it possible to view the full
page. Is there any way to specify an origin/magnification
on the command line (I know I can go in and put a few
such commands in a postscript file, read it in and then
read in the second file, but this gets tedious).

Better yet, is there any scrolling using the arrow keys?
The windows version has much of what I am asking, but since
emTeX doesn't run under windows, I don't want to fire up
and then exit from windows every time I do a tex-preview
cycle.

I am sure people have developed some work around for this.
Could someone clue me in?
