I checked into it and VTeX appears to be a version of LaTeX. 
 My particular background is in plain TeX and Context So if I read the
 description correctly VTeX is still not a preferred solution. 

It is possible to use Pstricks with pdf(e)tex if one chooses the dvi
output. So I am looking harder at that option.  

Thanks for your advice.
