Yeah, I agree -- it's a fine programming language in its own way, and
quite reasonable as a real source language.
I'd guess in such cases, given that Emacs is fundamentally a
text-editor, it seems best to do something like Emacs already does for
.xpm files: display as text (in postscript-mode or whatever) with a
message saying "Type C-c C-c to view the printed form of this document."
Indeed, for hacking on postscript, this would be great -- just make a
change, then hit C-c C-c to see the effect in the same window!
