[comp.sys.sgi] IRIX PostScript screen dumps

YATES@C.CHEM.UPENN.EDU ("YATES, JOHN H.") (05/16/91)

Our SGI is a server but soon will be upgraded with graphics. We
will want to screen dump to a PostScript file and/or device, (including
color, eventually).

The tools as scrsav and mapimg seem to only deal with image rgb files.

How does one get a PostScript version of screen dumps on the IRIS?

Thanks, John

Get a copy of tocolps.c, a version of tops.c which I modified to work 
with color. A copy is available by anonymous ftp from sgi.com.
