When I first tried to print the CMU Mach documentation I got from wb1.cs.cmu.edu:/usr/mach/public/doc/*.ps on my NeXT computer, some worked, some didn't. Since I got no reply after my message in comp.sys.next I decided to fix it myself. I could have settled for the plain ASCII file but I think they look ugly. the culprit files are machsys.ps and machuse.ps basically, you must set a version number, describe the prologue and set a trailer. for some reason, dvips used at cmu will put code into the script that really belong in the prolog. The piece of code in question is a set of font definitions before %%Page: 1 ?? which is close to the end of the file since the pages are in reversed order. These should be moved to the front of the file, together with the other font definitions. here is diff script to modify machsys.ps into NeXTmachsys.ps followed by another script to modify machuse.ps into NeXTmachuse.ps the versions are dated: machsys.ps Dec 28, 1989 machuse.ps Nov 7, 1989 # modify machsys.ps for the NeXT computer cp machsys.ps NeXTmachsys.ps;
