You just can't stop *other* people from selling the same thing for as much as the market will bear. And in fact, someone is doing exactly that. They charge a reasonable price for the code, and a "reasonable" price for the source, in the $200 range. This is perfectly reasonable given that you cannot obtain source code for *many* programs regardless of the price. -- --russ (nelson@clutx [.bitnet | .clarkson.edu]) Live up to the light thou hast, and more will be granted thee.

This is really not a bug report but a query. I couldn't find another place to
discuss this. Question, is there any current public domian implimentation
of Ghostscript for a HP laserjet or QMS printers. If so where can I
access it. Finally are their any public domain fonts available for
Ghostscript.
