and both X11 and junk.ps look fine - I can send junk.ps to you if you're=20
interested (didn't want to make so much noise on the list). So, there must =
be=20
something wrong with your build. I cannot remember seing issues with the=20
postscript-terminal on 4.0 but switched to 4.1 due to several very=20
interesting new features.
Take care
