I am still experimenting with postscript. I now have a script which
starts with:
    /inputFile INPUT (r) file def

I call it with:
    ps2pdf -sINPUT=quotes.org quote.ps

But get:
    Error: /invalidfileaccess in --file--
    Operand stack:
       inputFile   (quotes.org)   (r)
    Execution stack:
       %interp_exit   .runexec2   --nostringval--   --nostringval--   --nostringval--   2   %stopped_push   --nostringval--   --nostringval--   --nostringval--   false   1   %stopped_push   1910   1   3   %oparray_pop   1909   1   3   %oparray_pop   1893   1   3   %oparray_pop   1787   1   3   %oparray_pop   --nostringval--   %errorexec_pop   .runexec2   --nostringval--   --nostringval--   --nostringval--   2   %stopped_push   --nostringval--
    Dictionary stack:
       --dict:1175/3371(ro)(G)--   --dict:0/20(G)--   --dict:77/200(L)--
    Current allocation mode is local
    Current file position is 26
    GPL Ghostscript  9.00: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

What am I doing wrong?
