Hi,
Excuse me for interferring, but the issue is interesting to me too.
I'v installed the programs named above in that order from the CDROM #2 with
/stand/sysinstall. I have FreeBSD 4.1.
GS seems to start alright.
But I can't "run" SETUP! Command not found!
Isn't that supposed to be a perl-script or something?
There isn't much of help in the readmes. They say SETUP have to be run from the apsfilter
installation directory. Which one is that? I've tried to run it from the directory where the SETUP is,
/usr/local/apsfilter/
Anybody know?
Regards,
Thomas
