===========
Compilation
===========
To compile Ghostview you need Borland C++ 3.1.
Edit gsview.mak to point COMPBASE at your compiler directory.
Then type 'make -fgsview.mak'.

=====
Setup
=====
Copy gsview.exe and gsview.hlp to the Ghostscript directory.
If Ghostview can't run Ghostscript, or Ghostscript exits with error code 1,
then from the Ghostview menu select "Options | Ghostscript Command"
and enter the correct executable path and include path for Ghostscript.

Ghostview will run under Windows 3.1.
Ghostview will probably run under Windows 3.0, but you need commdlg.dll,
shell.dll and winhelp.exe from Windows 3.1. Very little testing has
been done with Windows 3.0. If it works at all consider yourself lucky.

See the on-line help for more details.
The 'Common Problems' topic is worth reading if Ghostview for
Windows won't work.

ps.c module, Ghostview for Windows would never have been written.
