Hi,

Kostas Oikonomou did some experimentation concerning the bug
with ghostscript 8.00, but he seems to be on hollidays now :^)
So if you have a problem with ghostscript 8.00 and know how
to compile TeXmacs, then maybe you can follow the suggestions
below and let me know if the problem disappears.

Thanks, Joris
