[comp.windows.x] new version of ralpage

jw@sics.se (Johan Widen) (08/21/90)

(ralpage is a later version of the xps PostScript previewer. ralpage
has much better font support that xps.)

I retrieved the ralpage package from expo on the 15'th of August.
ralpage turned out to have a number of bugs.

I have now fixed some of the bugs. I have also applied Barry Shein's
performance enhancements, and a few changes by John G. Myers that
had not made it into ralpage.

It turned out that there was a problem with user defined fonts, at least
they did not work for me. I "fixed" the problem by turning off the caching
of the user defined fonts (in ShowUser() in font.c).

The new version is available by anonymous ftp from
	sics.se (192.16.123.90)
as
	archive/ralpage.tar.Z

The version on expo had almost non existent installation documentation.
The new version is no better in this respect.
