Welcome! Please read this information.

This is Gerben Wierda's free binary distribution of gv (Ghostview) for X11 on for Mac OS X. Ghostview is a PostScript previewer that needs the X11 windowing system to function.

To make it run pretty, add the line in ~/.Xdefaults: 

*customization: -color

Note: gv is installed in its default location /usr/local/bin, so you need to add that directory to your X11 PATH settings if you haven't already done so.

For information on i-Installer.app packages, see the i-Installer.app Help function. Especially read about the risks of installing software from the net and how you can inspect the contents of your package.
