Regarding Ghostscript: I hate to say this to you but I've already
39
implemented a Ghostscript interpreter. I'm happy to see that someone else
40
has recognized the need dead people have for computers. I have included an
41
example of the output of my Ghostscript at the end of this letter.
42
 
43
<p>
44
The interpreter is written in a language called cant-C, developed by Mr.
45
Turing last year. The compiler is easily ported to any environment you
46
care to name. I would be more than happy to send you a copy, but you must
47
first contact my lawyer for this venture, Thomas Jefferson of Phila. Pa..
48
(As a side note, Mr. Jefferson is very excited by Ghostscript. Look for
49
The Declaration of Independance V1.1 RSN).
50
 
51
<p>
52
The possibilities for Ghostscript go far beyond Deathtop publishing, I'm
53
sure you'll agree. I have contacted numerous authors who may be interested
54
in using Ghostscript (Shakespeare, Hemingway, etc) and all have been very
55
excited by what they've seen. (Shakespeare wants to write a modern Romeo
56
and Juliette, called Romeo and Julio, the story of 2 gay hispanic men kept
57
apart by their parents.)
58
 
59
<p>
60
Anyway, here is the Ghostscript example I promised. Feel free to show this
61
to your friends and colleagues, I'm sure they'll all be suitably impressed.
