PostScript as a Programming Language for Bioinformatics

From the post:

“PostScript (PS) is an interpreted, stack-based programming language. It is best known for its use as a page description language in the electronic and desktop publishing areas.”[wikipedia]. In this post, I’ll show how I’ve used to create a simple and lightweight view of the genome.

Awesome in a number of respects! Have you used PostScript to visualize a topic map? Not that it would be likely to be a production device but the discipline of doing it could be interesting.
