I have an interesting problem with Netscape (4.73 from MDK 7.1). I had gv set up as the application to call for Postscript documents (gv %s), but was fooling around trying to get Netscape to handle gzipped Postscript where the mime type shows as gzip rather than postscript (application/x-gzip vs. application/postscript, as I recall). Well, I wasn't able to get that working, but somehow in fussing around trying new application entries, I have managed to get Netscape to break gv when it calls it. Now, when I click on a Postscript document gv pops up (showing the correct document title and number of pages), but I get a Ghostscript Messages window that says: "Error: PostScript interpreter failed in main window." Furthermore, if I try to open any local ps files with this gv, I get the same message. However, if I just call gv on the local files it works fine, and if I change Netscape to say call emacs on Postscript files, the files look fine in emacs and I can directly call gv on the /tmp file that has been created. I am baffled as to what is going on. What is even harder for me to understand is that I deleted the .netscape directory and .mime.types in an account and tried simply starting from scratch with a Netscape. However, after accepting the license, etc., Netscape comes up showing Postscript documents already set to call gv %s!! In other words, it seems to have written this outside of the user account (since this is now the orginal default for Netscape). This makes me wonder whether it has somehow stored some of the weird commands I was trying and is also attempting to execute them. Anyway, before I delete and re-install netscape, I was wondering if anyone else had every encountered anything like this or had any suggestions for what I might try short of re-installing Netscape. Thanks, Norm
