Follow-up Comment #3:
Thanks for reporting back.
Yes this is something for the wiki.
I think the actual, hmm..., "error" lies with the Windows port of ghostscript
- AFAIK on other OSes calling "gs" simply invokes the proper executable called
"gs", while for reasons perhaps only known to the gs maintainers, in Windows
it's called gswin32.exe (GUI) or gswin32c.exe (CLI version).
That said, perhaps some configure flag could be added to Octave, or some
stanza like:
if ispc
<call gswin32c>
else
<call gs>
endif
or so in __ghostscript__.m (I didn't look yet).
Ugly, yes.
I'll leave this bug report open for in case someone would like to patch
__ghostscript__.m (I have no time now).
As to "-r0", I can confirm that one.
Could you please issue a separate bug report for this (OS "any" for the time
being)?
I think it is a regression, as it does work OK under octave-3.2.4 but no more
in 3.4.3 and up.
