Greetings all!

Being fairly impatient, I went ahead and fixed this printing problem..
:)

While I know this isn't the forum for just things, here is what I did to
fix the problem.

Using the 0.7.7 tarballs on the abisource website (i didn't use the
latest cvs version).
opening the file in your favorite text editor:
src/af/xap/unix/xap_UnixPSGraphics.cpp

go to line 630, which should read:

  char ch = 0;

and change it to read:

  signed char ch = 0;

This eliminates a warning during the compile, and now allows the IRIX
version to print!
You can shoot down bug: "692 - Postscript Printing failure on IRIX" in
bugzilla.

BTW, during the compile of the application, this very same warning crops
up in a couple of files..
I'll take a look and see if the fix is the same..

bob..
