GPL Ghostscript not working #362

Closed FrequentErvin closed 1 year ago

FrequentErvin commented 1 year ago

I'm relatively new to Asymptote. I've used it through Overleaf (begin{asy} ...) and imported manually every package I needed. For example, if I needed to import cse5 I would get the raw file from GitHub and input it into my working directory. I've tried installing Asymptote locally but failed when I got to GPL Ghostscript since it's outdated / not available / not working when I try and run asy. I was following this installation guide: https://asymptote.sourceforge.io/

TL;DR: I want to run Asymptote locally, but can't get GPL Ghostscript to work.

Install AGPL Ghostscript 10.0.0 for your platform from https://www.ghostscript.com/releases/gsdnld.html
