I asked a question about using the image operator to produce color images
instead of grey scale.

In the meantime I browsed the Adobe documents server (ps-file-server@adobe.com)
and found a document called Color Extensions (dated 23-jan-1990) describing
some new PostScript operators including  colorimage  and  setcolortransfer
The first is analagous to image but uses RGB or CMYK input, and the latter
is an expansion of settransfer to four color components.

Color PostScript printers are going to become more common, so will these
operators be in NeWS?
