I don't think we can safely distribute AFPL Ghostscript/GSView in the
distribution but linking to them is OK. However, aside from that,
there is one major hurdle to making server-side printing practical for
Windows users-- creating the printers for the System account. A
couple of possibilities include:
1) Shell scripts and Cygwin (I could do this) or
2) Someone with Real Windows Programming Experience (tm) writing a
simple script (probably Perl) to do it.
Any feedback or preference?
Best Wishes,
Chris Travers
