postscript needs a postscript interpreter. 

So you need to run

latex
dvips
ps2pdf

All three tools have menu entries in winedt. 

The alternative is xelatex. 

Or you drop pstricks and use tikz instead, then you can compile with
pdflatex directly:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw(0,0)--(4,0);
\draw(2,0)--(2,1);
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
