... Большинству любителей недоступны крупные телескопы типа как Алькор и Мицар,и они останавливают свой выбор на таких недорогих компактных и моблильных инструметнах как зрительные трубы и монокуляры. Самые распространенные среди них - ЗРТ-457 и МП 20х60. За три года работы с этими инструментами я выявил не мало их скрытых достоинств, впрочем как и недостатков и хочу ниже в кратце рассказать о них. ... Поговорим об оптических достоинствах трубы. Они несколько хуже, чем у монокуляра. ...

Victor Chan forward this message to me regarding how to create PostScript Fills. ... In closing, I said that you could put any object you could draw in FreeHand into the fill, and that I'd show you how to do that. ... To get the PostScript code you need, draw the object you want for your custom fill in FreeHand, then export the file as an EPS. ... The actual objects you've drawn will be very near the end of the file, between the line "%%EndSetup" and befor e the line "%%Trailer." ...
