Need programming help with ShowDVI/Specialhost
Quite a regular
Quite a regular


See User information
Hi all,


I am finishing LaTeX port for AOS4. As a part of the porting I managed to integrate m68k viewer showDVI with the recent version of LaTeX..
The missing part atm is capability of the viewer to display PostScript graphics included into documents.
Originally it was done by a companion program SpeciaHost which used post.library to convert the proscript gfx into bitmap graphics and handled it for display in the viewer.
The main limitation of post.library to handle full set of PostScript level 2 commands.
Most programs output at least level 2 PS graphics.
The idea is to make SpecialHost to handle gfx using Ghostscript which is a part of os4 instalation or to write new post.library (HWGPost package on Aminet) that uses Ghostscript as PS interpreter.
Both ways are far beyond my programming abilities.
Useful link:
Pastex sources that include specialhost

Any help will be appreciated,
TIA,
Jack
