Re: conversion script not found

[Tim Tsai <tim@futuresouth.com>]

  I am enclosing the arguments to ps2fax.  If I run the command as
shown (escaping the ; character), it works OK.  At first I thought it was
the ; character but I poked around on another friend's system that has a
working hylafax (but using a much older GhostScript) and his ps2fax did
the same.

-o docq/doc10.ps;30 -r 98 -w 1728 -l 280 -m 4294967295 -1 docq/doc10.ps.10
-o docq/doc10.ps;30 -r 98 -w 1728 -l 280 -m 4294967295 -1 docq/doc10.ps.10

  Thanks!

  PS:  I am using HylaFAX 4.0pl1 and Aladdin Ghostscript 4.03.  All the
individual commands seem to work OK, and ghostscript has the right
tiffg3 driver.  It just doesn't work together for some reason.
