To view .ps files, try ghostview, default installed on Linux. I'm not sure about other Unices, but it is open source.
man gv

Also (especially in Linux) look for the psto* or ps2* applications, like ps2ascii or ps2text (also pstoascii and pstotext).

If you don't have them, install the ghostview package...
