This compilation was done by Florian Zeiler (zeiler@irseesoft.com) based on the Amiga port of Aladdin Ghostscript 5.10 by Joop van de Wege (JoopvandeWege@mail.mococo.nl) which was based on the Amiga port of Ghostscript 3.53 by Olaf Barthel (olsen@sourcery.han.de). This version differs from Aladdin Ghostscript 5.10 as found in the Aminet in the following points: - a driver for Turboprint Pro 7 has been added - if a environment variable named "GS_TEMPDIR" exists, it will be used to determine where to store temporary files. The default is "T:", which is usually assigned to the drawer "RAM:T". - the fonts are not included. They are available from the Aminet: /gfx/show/GS510-stdfonts.lha You can also use the fonts from GNU Ghostscript 4.03 as installed by Turboprint 7. Installation: - You need the archive GS510.LHA and one of the following depending on the processor and fpu in your Amiga: GS_020.LHA for Amigas with 68020, e.g. A1200 without CPU board GS_020FPU.LHA for Amigas with 68020 + FPU GS_030.LHA for Amigas with 68030, e.g. A4000/30 GS_030FPU.LHA for Amigas with 68030 + FPU, e.g. A3000 GS_040.LHA for Amigas with 68040, e.g. A4000/40 GS_040FPU.LHA for Amigas with 68040 + FPU GS_060FPU.LHA for Amigas with 68060 - If you had previously installed GNU Ghostscript 4.03 using the installer of Turboprint 7, delete any files in the drawer "Ghostscript:" that end with ps: cd ghostscript: delete #?.ps Unpack the archive GS510.LHA and one of the GS_... to the drawer Ghostscript: and tell LHA to overwrite existing files. - Otherwise create a drawer, e.g. "work:ghostscript" and add a line to "s:user-startup" which creates an assign named "Ghostscript:" to this drawer, e.g. ;BEGIN Ghostscript Assign Ghostscript: work:ghostscript ;END Ghostscript - Unpack the archive GS510.LHA and one of the GS_... using LHA (available via Aminet) to the drawer "Ghostscript:" - Create a drawer named "fonts" within "Ghostscript:". Unpack the archive GS510-stdfonts. If you overwrite a previous installation of GNU Ghostscript 4.03, you don't have to add any fonts. - Now you can start the ghostscript interpreter named "GS" in "Ghostscript:", e.g. CD Ghostscript: GS examples/alphabet.ps - If you get a software failure message with error code 8000000B, you have probably chosen the wrong CPU/FPU version.
