This  port tries  to  patch the  GhostScript's  Fontmap automaticly,  so
unless  you  have  non-standard  GhostScript  installation  (or  if  you
installed GhostScript afterwards), you should not have to do anything.

For   your  X-server   to  use   the  fonts,   you  have   to  add   the
${PREFIX}/share/CyrPS (usually, /usr/local/share/CyrPS)  to the server's
font-path. Use  ``xset fp+'' to  do this  for the current  X-session and
consult your X-server's documentation to make this permanent.

For gv  to use  the newly  installed KOI8  fonts, it  may have  to start
GhostScript with the ``-dNOPLATFONTS'' option. One way to ensure this is
to add  -dNOPLATFONTS to  the GV.gsX11Device resource  -- either  in the
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/GV, or in  individual's ~/.Xdefaults. An
individual  user can  also  put this  into  his or  her  ~/.gv file,  by
starting up  gv, choosing the  menu option ``Ghostscript  Options'' from
the ``State'' menu  and typing in ``-dNOPLATFONTS''  into the ``Device''
entry.

This package  will NOT by itself  help you print Cyrillic  on PostScript
printers -- they use their own PostScript engines (not GhostScript). The
port russian/koify may help you with those.
