I got to thinking about the GS license (it's GPL now) and I'll either
have to make it a separate download or find an existing Mac binary,
or maybe use an older AFPL GS. Maybe there's an equivalent in the
system somewhere - it already uses CUPS for printing, maybe there's a
CLI postscript renderer...
Is your GUI printing use of GS the only thing in GRASS that uses it?
Does it generate an image, or print-ready postscript?

Yea. TclTk (at least the packages we use) doesn't have any good
built in
printing routines. I wrote one that is included in the GUI, but it
needs
ghostscript to translate from the native postscript of the canvas
into print
output.

Ah. Another one to work on bundling in my binaries.
