Hi Gang,
I'm wondering how hard it would be to come up with a REXX replacement for the unix shell script pstoraster that is used by CUPS?
My REXX is a bit rusty, so I thought I'd ask here if someone could take a look - a sample of the shell script is at http://smedley.info/pstoraster
The use of a unix shell is a PITA and (I think) the cause of several users having problems with CUPS.
Thanks in advance,
Paul.
Doesn't look very difficult and resembles REXX code that I have created in PDFMergeNX for "direct" distilling (without using ePDF).
However I need to check what several details in the script do exactly as my shell script knowledge is rather ???
Kind regards,
Herwig

Any questions see me on IRC :) the other problem(?) is that ghostscript needs to be able to accept input on stdin, and the output will go to stdout - I don't know if this is a problem or not??
