Hmm, so there's no hope of seeing that fixed in the near future?

Is there a workaround that doesn't involve using eps2write, other than using ImageMagick? Or is there a way we can manually add something that does exactly that to the TeXmacs source?

Or, perhaps better, can we add an option to the Preferences menu for using either ImageMagick or GS? That way, the default will still work, but since for most people ImageMagick is installed, that will provide an easy solution that doesn't require recompiling TeXmacs with a patch!

I'm shooting in the dark right there, as I don't know much about the TeXmacs architecture, or GhostScript for that matter, so tell if I'm saying nonsense ;)

The responsibility falls with texmacs for wrongly using the ps2write target which just happened to work with gs8 instead of the correct eps2write target which does not exist with gs8 and probably still does not exist with gs9

I'm being slightly ironic.

OK, so I suppose the responsibility falls to upstream then, right?

Do you have any idea on the status of that?

Thanks,

I will check it in the next weeks.


IIRC Joris refused the patch as it creates a dependency on ImageMagik - otherwise I would commit it.
