[pstricks] nbput and ncput

[Vinay Kanetkar]

Hi Herbert:

I now have better understanding of error. 

On my home computer, I have pstricks with following
pstricks.tex    2008/06/17 v1.24 `PSTricks' (tvz)

On my office computer, I have most recent pstricks, Aug, 2010. 

On my home computer, both codes work fine. On my office computer,
Compiling works fine but when I preview, screen goes blank (black) and see several 
errors from Ghostscript.

Main difference in both code is \nbput (does not work in recent pstricks) 
and \ncput works in both computer.

Minimal codes are provided below.
