I uploaded ghostscript 2.1 from prep.ai.mit.edu, attempted to use the
precompiled dos executable, and have had problems with it.
The system I'm using is a 386 with color vga running Windows 3. I
must have missed something that is supposed to be set up. The
directory gs.exe is invoked from contains the following files:
Directory of C:\DOWNLOAD\GS
. .. GS EXE GHOST PS GFONTS PS
FONTMAP UGLYR GSF COPYLEFT DOC DRIVERS DOC EXTEND DOC
FONTS DOC HERSHEY DOC HISTORY DOC HUMOR DOC LANGUAGE DOC
LIB DOC MAKE DOC MAN DOC PSFILES DOC README DOC
TODO DOC USE DOC FONTS COMA GS ZOO
25 File(s) 42502144 bytes free
The error messages I got were:
C:\DOWNLOAD\GS>gs
Reading ghost.ps... gsmisc.c(35): alloc chunk: malloc failed
Interp returns -25

Any help with this would be appreciated. Thanks,
