Hi - I installed Ghostscript & its fonts & xfree86-base-installed. If I try
to do a man gs I get a response of

And if I try to use it to open an eps postscript file I get an error that it
can not open the X display.
Example:
gs test01-plots.eps
AFPL Ghostscript 7.04 (2002-01-31)
Copyright (C) 2001 artofcode LLC, Benicia, CA.  All rights reserved.
This software comes with NO WARRANTY: see the file PUBLIC for details.
AFPL Ghostscript 7.04: Cannot open X display `(null)'.
**** Unable to open the initial device, quitting.
>
What do I do now? Also why doesn't man gs work?
Do I need to install an  X window manager? If so which one.
I would really like to do something like

gs test01-plots.eps | lp

And have it print the file

TIA
