[pstricks] Gouraud shading

[na199 at gmx.de]

Well, I loaded the picture mentioned below by our chinese friend and had 
no problem to view it with gsview (version 4.6). Also converting to an 
pdf-file worked then.
Augmented the Gouraud shading looks on screen much better than my own 
shading efforts with pstricks.

But with other programs I had problems even to open the eps-file: where I 
got an explanation about the failure, they complained about the "shfill"-
command at the end of the eps-file. 

My Adobe Illustrator 10 could not load it. 

A conversion to a ps-file gave a more realistic size: 2.6 MB instead of 
37 kb. My guess is that the number of procedures exhausts either the 
capabilities of some postscript interpreters or the hardware's memory. 

It seems that one should use this technique - at least a fresh and 
promising approach - with care; not everybody might be able to see the 
results.
