Please e-mail. > Scott Kajihara The package you are refereing to has been written by Seth Teller and the ftp site is ftp.brl.mil. The files reside in pub (psgl.[ch]) The package works by generating a postscript file from the commands that are stored in the "feedback buffer". Great for making overhead sheets and/or figures in TeX documents. Note, however, that the package *only* works on a GTX based machine and *not* on a Personal Iris or a VGX machine. I have ported it to the Personal Iris. It should also run on VGX machines. I have also compiled a manual page based on the comments in the original posting and other clarifications. Send me mail if you are interested in my port. -- Robert van Liere ---------------------- Robert van Liere, Department of Interactive Systems, Center for Mathematics and Computer Science (CWI) Kruislaan 413, 1098 SJ Amsterdam, The Netherlands robertl@cwi.nl
