[OS X TeX] Gems from Japan: RPN2TeX and AutoTeX

In fact, that is a link to 
/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin6.8/.  And for me it doesn't 
matter which path I pass to RPN2TeX, it'll always happen the same, 
namely -- according to console log, after the Preview-button is 
invoked:

%---------------  excerpt from console.log

So temp.dvi is created from temp.tex and passed to dvips, which 
produced temp.ps.  But RPN2TeX doesn't show any preview, but only the 
Spinning Pizza.  What am I doing wrong?  I suspect some privileges 
aren't set correctly.
