I'm always trying out new ideas on it - one is to add a %%boundingbox comment
to the PostScript output file.  Many other programs that can use PostScript
files look for that - right now, you have to add it with an editor.

real quick docs 1. put "gs" in your cmds dir (or a path in your PATH env
variable) 2. put the "lib" stuff and fonts in "/dd/etc/lib/gs"
     (or somewhere indicated in env variable "GS_LIB" 3. make a directory
called /dd/tmp or set env variable TEMP to
   a dir of your choice. 4. command line:  gs -sDEVICE=cdj550 tiger.ps 5. go
get a cup of coffee - this will take a while 6. when you get back to the GS>
prompt, type:  quit 7. Look in your temp directory for a file that looks like
   gs_000001 -- merge it to your printer.  Neat tiger.

I will have the rest of the GhostScript stuff up here in a couple days.  (Wayne
had to make some room, then my machine was down for a day or two) for those who
want to get it here.
