Viewing My Papers
To view postscript, use Ghostview.
To unzip the
compressed postscript, use a recent version of an unzipping package
(gunzip
works on linux/unix, winzip works on MS boxes if you choose "classic"
not "wizard" when you install it.) Postscript files end ".ps",
compressed postscript files end ".ps.gz". Uncompress ".ps.gz" files
before you try to run them in ghostview!
Since postscript seems to be another victim of Microsoft's "embrace,
extend, extinguish" campaign (why else won't their postscript ever
print out?) most of my publications are now in PDF, which can be read
with Ghostview (above) Adobe Acrobat, xpdf, and other utilities.
If you want to convert latex into pdf too, I strongly recommend dvipdfm.
Why
Learn Latex?
If you still can't read one of my papers, you can email me.
Particularly if you really want a postscript one converted to PDF or a
PDF one converted to postscript. I'm just not bothering since I
assume most people can read PDF these days, and most people interested
in my older publications are academic / geeky enough to get Ghostview
working.
