I've had a breif play with some ancient postscript files, and I'm afraid 
it's not as good as my previous version 8.71 - RISC OS 1.02 (18-Apr-06)

There were a couple more failures to process in postscript engine abd one 
ps file had incorrect colours. Most of the ones which displayed had much 
fainter lines and text than the old version, but this could be down to a 
setting somewhere.
