prosper doesn't work with dvi viewers.

This wouldn't have been necessary if you would have updated
pstricks and xcolor (as I told you) as the new pstricks uses
xcolor for all color things and avoids the bugs that you found.

And pstricks and probably xkeyval and seminar as well...

Anyway, you're welcome. If you have something working, that's good,
but if you want to do something special, like using pst-3dplot,
you will _have to_ upgrade pstricks and xkeyval and probabyl more
packages as well...
