Re: post script error

Micah,

The error messages are kind of vague, but it's possible that the PS
file can't be created because you're in a directory where:

    - you don't have write permissions
    - you've exceeded your file quota
    - there's not enough space to create a new file

When you change to "x11", no file gets written.
