README

          
GSAPI version 0.6 (heavily untested)

=================

This module provides an interface to the gsapi

functions of GNU Gostscript.

You normally won't need this module, it's far easier

to pipe to gs under Unix.

You need libgs - which is normally available under most Linux Distributions

as ghostscript-devel or equivalent - and the ghostscript header files, see

INSTALL.

You normally want to use the tie-method, here an example:

my $output;

{ local *FH;

   tie *FH, "GSAPI", stdout => sub { $output .= $_[0]; length $_[0]};

   print FH "12345679 9 mul pstack quit\n";

}

ok($output =~ /111111111/);

INSTALLATION

To install this module type the following:

   perl Makefile.PL CCFLAGS=-I/path-to/gnu_ghostscript-8.15/src

   make

   make test

   make install
