A PostScript viewer for DEC windows has been mentioned here recently. I have just started using a VAXstation 3100 here. Is it likely that this viewer is on this system. If it is, how do I fire it up. I've looked for it for an hour and I can't find it. John Mireley

If you have manual pages installed, "apropos postscript" or "man -k postscript" would have immediately returned something like: LW (1) - PostScript printer manager devps (1) - PostScript ditroff filter dxpsview (1X) - DECwindows PostScript previewer ln03rof (4) - LN03R ASCII to PostScript translation filter macroff (1) - process Macintosh-generated PostScript file for ditrof f mklist (1) - PostScript label generator ppr (1) - print PostScript file printer (1) - text file to printable PostScript filter psfix (1) - modify PostScript from \fIMathematica\fR for output psplot (1) - PostScript filter for plot(5) files pssetup (8) - install PostScript printer You'd then find the previewer is "dxpsview", from the above list.... (we have random other postscript stuff on our machines; your milage may vary....). - Jim
