Old-Graphic somehow detected the ps, eps, epsi files regardless of the
suffix.
My printed circuit board layout software puts out lots of files with
suffixes like .cmp, .sol, .drd .... which are all eps files and this did
not cause a problem.
I have -lots- of these and it will be a real PITA if I have rename them
all.
What, BTW, is the use of Old-Graphics?
