If you want to view EPS figures, try evince and/or gv (more primitive). There's gs (Ghostscript) that can be used to view them, but it is not intended to be used by the end user (gv is a front-end to it). Note: evince and gv use two different rendering libraries (Poppler for evince, Ghostscript for gv), so that if you find a bug in one of them, you may want to try the other one. > that's why I was looking for the "nice" alternative.

This is simpler (well, maybe not simple to guess): $ apt-cache search postscript-viewer evince - Document (PostScript, PDF) viewer evince-gtk - Document (PostScript, PDF) viewer (GTK+ version) ghostscript - interpreter for the PostScript language and for PDF gv - PostScript and PDF viewer for X html2ps - HTML to PostScript converter xhtml2ps - HTML to PostScript converter (Tcl/Tk GUI frontend) okular - universal document viewer and if you didn't know what EPS was: $ dict EPS -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arénaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
