I tried to update the GS port to 9.02, however the directory strcture
of gs has changed enough to make this rather painful.

as an alternative I tried to write a simple script to generate a mkfile
that would do the build directly. This worked well for many files but then
failed too, and I lost patience.

The file list I have was produced by a the existing
	mk fake-make
but with a cutdown driver list (no fax or tiff support). This didn't work
from mk fake-make but I thought it could be a reasonable starting point.
if I cannot get this tiny set of drivers to work then all hope is lost -
and I couldn't.

have a go if you are feeling brave.

download ghostscript-9.02 source

	tar xf ghostscript-9.02.tbz
	rm ghostscript-9.02.tbz
	cd ghostscript-9.02

	cp /sys/src/cmd/gs/src/gdevplan9.c src

	mkdir plan9
	9fs sources

	cp /n/sources/contrib/steve/gs-9.02-failed-port/*  plan9

	plan9/gen-mkfile > junk
	mk -f junk


try and debug the errors.

freetype does some very ugly stuff...

good luck
