Hi PostScript Hackers,
|
||
|
||
|
||
PdB version 2.1 (ANSI-C to PostScript compiler) is now available via
|
||
anonymous ftp from:
|
||
|
||
|
||
turing.com (192.133.90.28) in pub/pdb2.1-demo.tar.Z
|
||
ftp.uu.net (192.48.96.9) in graphics/NeWS/pdb2.1-demo.tar.Z
|
||
|
||
|
||
There is no more need to write PostScript! Start using PdB right now! PdB
|
||
is an optimizing compiler to compile ANSI-C (like) code into Adobe
|
||
compatible PostScript. It includes executables, examples and many useful
|
||
header files. Note that it is not dependend on NeWS.
|
||
|
||
|
||
The release of version 2.1 includes:
|
||
|
||
|
||
\- Binaries for Sun SPARC station and IBM RS6000.
|
||
\- Include files for Abobe PostScript level I.
|
||
\- Include files for NeWS upto version 3.1.
|
||
\- Include files for TNT upto version 3.1.
|
||
\- Support for CPS OpenWindows upto version 3.1.
|
||
\- Support NeWS classing in a C++ manner.
|
||
\- Plenty of examples of all the above functions.
|
||
\- NeWS/OpenWindows test suite.
|
||
\- PostScript reference manual.
|
||
\- UNIX manual pages.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Below are some examples of PdB code together with the PostScript
|
||
produced by the compiler.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Have fun,
|
