In addition to Giacomelli's mail I inform you you can find
text-processing and viewing software in the anonymous site:

ftp.sunet.se

in subdirectory /pub/text-processing/postscript

i have unloaded the installGuide.ps.Z file onto my machine but i am
not sure which compression package puts a Z onto the end of the

file,

anyone?

use 'uncompress'

also, we know that we can print out postscript files, but how do we

edit

them?

As you may observe fromt the discussions on the list, this is a BIG
problem.
In 99% of the cases, you may preview your file with some packages
(ghostview for instance), but editing is something you should usually
do
before creating a ps file

Cheers,
