Yes, the previewer does just fine with the postscript, but it does not have
the features that are given in the man page. Specifically, it will
not read input from stdin, regardless of whether you invoke it as
"psview <file.ps" or "psview - <file.ps". "say" is supposed to
work on stdin as well when invoked as "say -P": it doesn't.
Is there any way to get a postscript file to be executed in a window?
"psh" works on stdin (thankfully), but it just writes on the background --
you have to move all your other windows out of the way and damage is
not repaired.
