Just to let the folks on this list know.
I downloaded some postscript tools from the lindows warehouse. I think that
ps2epsi comes from psutils but I can't swear.
When I ran ps2epsi, I got a sed error. The eps file seemed to be generated
but it wouldn't display. The problem was a long sed statement with wrap
arounds, like so:
sed -e '/badbig expression/d' -e '/anotherbadexpress/d'\
-e '/Yetanotherbig expression/d'
The problem is that there is no space between the \ on the first line and the
-e on the second line.
How this could get loose in the wild is beyond me.
