As you have Ghostscript installed, then you just need to make sure
that POSTGHST.PRN and KMD.EXE are present in Editor's directory, and
that POSTGHST.PRN is listed in the PP: stanza of SETTINGS.DFL (and
that it's the loaded printer file when you run TYP or XY2PDF). If
you should happen no longer to have KMD.EXE, you can simply do
CI /KMD.EXE/CMD.EXE/ on U2 and reload U2 with LOADHELP. In
fact, you might just do that anyway. KMD.EXE was a workaround for
Win 9x; it's a dead letter now. (Cue the Windows 98 diehards.)
