Programmer's File Printer
                                    for Windows 3


Abstract
--------

Programmer's File Printer is a Windows 3 application that lets you print text
files such as program listings, and produce hexadecimal dumps of binary files.

You have full control over the format of a text file listing: you can specify

    - whether lines are numbered
    - whether pages have headers
    - whether long lines are wrapped or truncated
    - the size of tab stops

as well as selecting the type face and size. For both text listings and hex
dumps, you can choose to print either the whole file, or only a part.

You can, if you wish, specify a set of listing attributes to be used for all
files of a given type, such as '.c' or '.asm', so that they are automatically
listed in the way you want. You can also set attributes on an individual file
basis.
