[aside]
Surely I'm not the only one who remembers word processors that came with
a setup file that looked like this:
.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
.bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb.
.cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc.
... etc
that you had to print proportionally, measure between the dots on each
line, and key the results into a driver file?
Or am I very old indeed? ;-)
