I am looking for a unix utility that will allow merging of two postscript
files. There was a uitlity on dos that was called composite, and the syntax
was:

composite first.ps second.ps output.ps

The resulting output.ps was a merge (overlayed) of first or second.

Anyone know of a unix utility for osr5 that will do that?

Regards,
wj

The 'composite' binary of ImageMagick does the job.

Sure, after you compile it.

Version 6.19: http://www.aljex.com/bkw/sco/index.html#ImageMagick
Version 5.10:
ftp://ftp2.sco.com/pub/skunkware/osr...5.1.0-VOLS.tar

Both have (different) prerequisites that must be installed first before
they will work.

I installed 5.1.0 from skunkware, nice program! Does the 6.19 have enough
advantages that I should install that one. Is it a binary or will I need to
compile. Also can you summerize the prerequisites for 6.19.

Help appreciated,
wj

I believe they changed that to combine instead of composite? I see no
composite now?

Thanks
