You could also try gv:

"The difference between me and you? I will read the man page." and "Respect the hat." and "You could just do a search on ITRC, you don't need to start a thread on a topic that's been answered 100 times already." Oh, and "What. no points???"

Shalom,

You probably also need to install ghostscript from the software and porting archive center
