For interactive-mode stuff (which seesm to be what you're interested
in), I just use the command recall facility. I have a pair of short
procedures that set and reset the grapics device to PostScript, so it's
just a matter of doing:

1) Create graphic on-screen
2) run 'pso' (for PostScript Open)
3) Recall the command(s) that create the graphic
4) run 'psc' - which even sends the PostScript file off
to the printer.

I posted 'pso' and 'psc' awhile ago, thery're also available via ftp
from 'helix.nih.gov' in '/nmrctr/misc_idl'
