This is a Kommander script (Kommander is a KDE application which runs scripts written in a specific XML language; you need kmdr-executor in order to run this script). This Kommander script generates a dialog which enables the user to generate DVI, PostScript, or PDF files from a LaTeX source (of course this script is only a frontend for latex, dvips, ps2pdf and pdflatex which you should install first). The dialog offers several options which can be set by simply ticking some checkboxes. There is also a LaTeX output box in which you can see the information that LaTeX generates when it is runned. View screenshot of latex2ps.kdmr typesetting a LaTeX document to PDF via PS.
Files: download latex2ps.kmdr (version 1.7), and a service menu for Konqueror which enables you to right click in Konqueror on a LaTeX file and select latex2ps.kmdr in the popup menu.
