Postscript/

printps.pro

- archiving possibilities - if archive_ps (common variable of cm_4ps) ne 0 then the postscript can be saved for archiving if it is printed or if the button "archive ps" is pressed. if it is printed and archive_ps = 1 then the archiving is done automatically whereas we ask if the postscript file must be archived or not. If the postscript name is "idl.ps" (default name) then this name will be changed to number.ps (number automatically found to be 1 larger that any of the existing ps file). postscript visualisation/archiving/printing
