I would like to request that the postscript documentation for ISIS v2.0 be split up into files less than 1 Meg. My postscipt printer is currently unable to print anything larger than a Meg and I really could use the updated docs. Thanks Bill Sheppard World Bank Washington DC

The -s cause symbol link made between printer spooler and spool files instead of try to duplicate print files. This works fine on Sun4 or Sparc station, I don't know if similar thing exists on other unix system. -- Sehyo Chang schang@netcom.uucp Ascent Logic Corp. ucvbax!ames!claris!netcom!schang (408)943-0630

BTW, are the diagrams available in postscript? If so, could they be made available in a separate file? Thanks, -- Ralph Finch 916-445-0088 rfinch@water.ca.gov ...ucbvax!ucdavis!caldwr!rfinch Any opinions expressed are my own; they do not represent the DWR

A high priority is to have my secretary redo these with something more reasonable. However, we are having trouble identifying a suitable package: 1) Must run on SUN's under X11 2) Must not cost a fortune 3) Produces postscript output so we can include it into our latex BTW, I just learned that the ISIS documentation some people ordered was misprinted with the figures missing. They should have been pasted in when it went to the printer and instead seem to have been left out and then stuck in at the last minute, unbound. Sorry about this. Our secretary had a serious health problem and the new person just needs little time to setlle into the job. Ken
