Introduction to postscript: https://www-cdf.fnal.gov/offline/PostScript/BLUEBOOK.PDF Reference: (https://www-cdf.fnal.gov/offline/PostScript/PLRM2.pdf) https://www-cdf.fnal.gov/offline/PostScript/PLRM3.pdf I test out snippets of postscript code with an editor and gv, where gv is set to "watch" the file I'm working on.
