forgot to fix psx11.c and devPicTeX.c while I was at it (devPicTeX.c doesn't seem to change the color). Should psx11.c be devpsx11.c?

In PostScript there are two separate calls. The following quick hack to SetLinetype() appears to work pretty well for X11, although there may be a better way to do it (logically, SetLinetype ought to take both lty and lwd as arguments, or there should be a separate SetLinewidth -- however, if there were two functions each would have to look at least briefly at the current settings so as not to screw them up): Before doing this in PostScript (where the width and type are set in separate calls), I'd like advice. Also, is there a particular reason that default line width in PostScript is 0.75 and not 1.0? *** devX11.c.orig Tue Jul 29 16:44:19 1997 --- devX11.c Wed Jul 30 10:21:43 1997 *************** *** 389,395 **** if(newlty != lty) { if(newlty == 0) { !
