Re: wait_for_file ??

Ben,

Just to clarify what is wrong for anyone who may be able to
help:

Under some circumstances when using a command of the form:
print gl2ps_t1x.pdf -dpdfwrite
or
print gl2ps_t1x.pdf -dpdf

the process which writes the intermediate *.eps file to /tmp,
does not complete before the gs command which reads this file
and creates the PDF is executed.  The fix that is needed is to
ensure that these steps are executed in sequence in the sense
that control does not reach the gs execution before the eps file has
been created.
