On the subject of EPS previews, the definition of eps_makeproxy in my copy of
the RISC OS !OEPS applet includes:
s="wimptask <GhostScript$Dir>.gs -q -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE
-sOutputFile="+to+" -sDEVICE=spr -r"+eps_dpi+" -dEPSCrop "+name;
result=osclis(s);
I had forgotten that the RISC OS version of AFPL Ghostscript included a device
for writing sprite files, which didn’t (and doesn’t) exist in the non-RISC OS
versions. So when creating or replacing a proxy for an EPS on RISC OS it wasn’t
necessary to go via TIFF as an intermediate format, as it on Windows.
