Re: flushing out buffer of output PS file, OLDPS vs PS

Hi Kyle,

why don’t you use the “eps“ or "oldeps“ format directly? Then =
you don’t have to call ps2eps.

wks = gsn_open_wks("eps","test“)

or

wks = gsn_open_wks("oldeps","test“)

Bye,
Karin

I'm not very sure if this was discussed earlier. Below is the test code.
