And when one of the former programs (like html2ps) requires one of the latter programs (like ImageMagick) this means that I have to install 2 versions of ghostscript. Is this really necessary? -charon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
