They have a whole set of documentation on Display PostScript. Basically, there's an X Server extension, and there's a client library which provides callable routines. The client library sends data to the server extension for actual execution. There are some other tools as well. There's a pre-processor called pswrap which takes programs written in a mix of c and PostScript and translates them into straight c code. This allows you to write called PostScript procedures, and link them into your application. What are you trying to find out? -pd
