Re: A2PS.

[Dr. Pastor]

(With the received helps I am nearly there!)

The latest:

Using only sygwin provided utilities, without any editing

I invoked: configure, make, make install.

The resulting a2ps nearly works.

I used the --list= TOPIC for all topics! (Brother!)

But:

Could not access my Lpt1 printer;

 

address@hidden /cygdrive/c/cygwin/a2ps-4.13
$ a2ps  Sample.cpp
[Sample.cpp (C++): 3 pages on 2 sheets]
lpr: can't open 'prn' for writing
lpr: The printer name is invalid.

a2ps: received signal 13: Broken pipe

address@hidden /cygdrive/c/cygwin/a2ps-4.13
$ a2ps --list=printers
                         Known Outputs (Printers, etc.)
                         ==============================

- Default Printer
  | #{lp.default}
- Unknown Printer
  | #{lp} #o
- file
  > $N.#.
- void
  > /dev/null
 

What should I do? (I am very new to unix!)

(By the way how can I see messages of other people on

a2ps @ gnu.org?)

Many thanks, and regards,

Dr. Pastor.
