with the suggestion "make "/usr/local/bin/gs" a symbolic link<br>
to "/opt/local/bin/gs"" what dou you mean by "symbolic link"?<br>

It's not an alias file in Mac OS X's HFS. On the command line you invoke:<br>
<br>
sudo ln -s /opt/local/bin/gs /usr/local/bin<br>
<br>
This will create a symbolic or sym-link file /usr/local/bin/gs that points to /opt/local/bin/gs. The HFS alias file can't work like a sym-link. And vice versa.<br>
