PSTricks on PPC

[Herve Choplin]

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the PSTricks mailing list, devoted to discussions about computational
graphics in (La)TeX using the PSTricks package from Timothy van Zandt.
For help using this mailing list, see instructions at the end of message.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

To view I create an postscript output file with dvips and I view with
MacGS 5.10 ; also create a pdf file with ps2pdf in MacGs and print
via AcrobatReader 3 on my Stylus Color 600.

I use OzTeX 3.1
