The Autumn 88 issue of Sun Technology has some interesting examples of NeWS programming. Also, I just got my copy of "Inside PostScript", available from Systems of Merritt, Inc. 2551 Old Dobbin Drive East Mobile, Alabama, 36695 (205) 660-1240, $37.50. + $3.50 shipping It discusses the internals of PostScript, as determined by someone examing the engine from the outside (i.e. not based on Adobe documentation). The book "documents the internal procedures and structure of Adobe's PotsScript interpreter showing programmers the techniques used by Adobe to control PostScript printers. Detailed discussion of error handling, printer control, job execution and file I/O are a few of the topics presented." -- Bruce G. Barnett a.k.a. uunet!crdgw1.ge.com!barnett barnett@crdgw1.UUCP
