PS_GET_BUFFER(3)							 1							  PS_GET_BUFFER(3)

ps_get_buffer - Fetches the full buffer containig the generated PS data

SYNOPSIS

       string ps_get_buffer (resource  $psdoc)

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  is not implemented yet. It will always return an empty string. The idea for a later implementation is to write the contents
       of the postscript file into an internal buffer if in memory creation is requested, and retrieve the buffer content with this function. Cur-
       rently, documents created in memory are send to the browser without buffering.

       Warning

	      This function is currently not documented; only its argument list is available.

PARAMETERS

	      o $psdoc
		- Resource identifier of the postscript file as returned by ps_new(3).

SEE ALSO

       ps_open_file(3).
