I was trying to use the dvi2ps, recently posted by J. Wang,
in particular the "psfig" feature.
Unfortunately i'm missing some pieces to include psfig in my LaTeX
file. Could somebody mail me the necessary files (or point to an
ftp site that has it)
thanks,

This problem is fixed, I submitted a newer version of dvi2ps.tar.Z and TeXGuide.tar.Z to june.cs.washington.edu in ~/tmp. If they are not there, then already moved into ~/tex anonymous under the name w_dvi2ps.tar.Z and TeXGuide.tar.Z. Both of them carry fixings and updates, so I recommend you use them to replace the older ones. psfig/TeX only needs psfig.tex macro under ~/psfig, and nothing else are needed. If you get the error message while TeXing or LaTeXing, most probably your PostScript file has no BoundingBox. bbfig in the release is for fixing this problem. However, I suggest you use \special{psfile=filename} in this case, because there is no guarrantee that your PostScript file will be in perfect shape after you put in the BoundingBox. JB
