The binary file is for displaying postscript on the terminal.
Karl@cs.umb.edu told me that ghostscript supports HP Laser Jet
as one of the standard devices [others: epson, Desk Jet ...]
But one has to compile the sources. It requires TURBO C 2.0
or later and Turbo Assembler or MS Assembler. 

I am trying to get the files compiled.
