Having run into a problem this weekend that a newer ghostscript would solve (having to do with getting an -invalidfont- error), I found it and hacked up a quick-and-dirty port. I'm not opening a PR because this thing is definitely _not_ ready for prime time and I have no time at the moment to make it so, having started a new job last week. I'm therefore making the patch (and distfile, just in case) available on my website; the patch is 'cups-pstoraster-espgs815.patch' at http://www.exit.com/Archives/ and the distfile is in the Distfiles directory below that. Most notably, this thing installs espgs as a regular ghostscript port, but the pkg-plist is still the cups-pstoraster port. I just thought that this might make a reasonable starting place for whoever wants to pick it up from here. -- Frank Mayhar frank@exit.com http://www.exit.com/ Exit Consulting http://www.gpsclock.com/ http://www.exit.com/blog/frank/
