Reposted-by: emv@ox.com (Edward Vielmetti) I have sent this message to Mr. Cagenello, but it got bounced. A prebuilt TEX with previewer for PI's is available on vgr.brl.mil (192.5.23.6). You can get it by anonymous ftp. The version I got some months ago works fine, excepted for an annoying feature: the dvi2ps does not handle correctly the \special command. A local guru here in Lausanne says that the problem is related to a char instead of a int or viceversa. As I am not a guru, I prefer to wait until the bug is fixed on the prebuilt version on vgr.brl.mil instead of recompiling sources!
