>I've been slowly working away here on the GGS implementation, and have
>been investigating the best way to create a platform-independent
>implementation.  Since it appears that some manner of VGDevice is
>required for the engine to function (removing the VGDevice from
>GuidoInitDesc is quite troublesome, so perhaps it is best to leave it
>be!)  Therefore, it would seem that using GDevicePostScript may be the
>best candidate for not breaking anything while still having access to
>the font information necessary for GuidoInitDesc (and, postscript output
>is also on my list of things to do).  What is the state of the
>GDevicePostScript code?  Is it ready to go, or does it need more work?
>If the latter, I'll happily volunteer to work on it, if someone can
>bring me up to speed on where it is at.  Thanks!
