[pstricks] \usepackage[usenames]{pstcol}

[Juergen Gilg]

David,

as the warning tells: _pstcol is obsolete_.

Try this instead

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[dvipsnames]{pstricks}
%\usepackage[usenames]{pstcol}
\begin{document}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(3,3)
\psframe[linestyle=none, fillstyle=solid,fillcolor=Apricot](0,0)(2,2)
\pspolygon[linestyle=none,fillstyle=solid,fillcolor=Tan](0,2)(2,2)
(3,3)(1,3)
\pspolygon[linestyle=none,fillstyle=solid,fillcolor=Mahogany]
(2,0)(3,1)(3,3)(2,2)
\end{pspicture}
\end{document}

Regards,

Juergen
