-
- Gooffy is a little program which prints ASCII text files like the
- GEM desktop, but you can continue to use your computer even if you
- are printing very long files.
-
- It should work correctly on any ATARI ST/STE/TT/Falcon, but I only
- have tested it on my Falcon....
-
- How can I use Gooffy ?
-
- It is very simple to use, but you can do it in 2 different ways.
-
- 1) As a simple APP/PRG application
-
- Just clic on GOOFFY.APP and a file selector will appear so that you
- can choose the file you want to print.
-
- On recent TOS, you can drag the file you want to print on GOOFFY.APP
- and it will be automaticly loaded and printed by Gooffy.
-
- If you're using MultiTOS, you can replace the original printing program
- LPR.APP by GOOFFY.APP. To do so replace the line:
-
- setenv SHPRINT=C:\MULTITOS\LPR.APP by
- setenv SHPRINT=C:\MULTITOS\GOOFFY.APP
-
- in the file GEM.CNF (the example supposes that you have copied GOOFFY.APP
- in the folder C:\MULTITOS\).
-
- Gooffy has the particularity of not freezing all applications if the printer
- is not ready (no paper or off line) like LPR.APP does...
-
- 2) As desk-accessory
-
- Rename GOOFFY.APP as GOOFFY.ACC and copy it in the root of your boot
- drive (usualy C:\ if you have a harddisk or A:\ if you don't).
-
- To use it, just call the accessory by clicking on its name in the
- first menu like any other accessory. The file selector will appear,
- then just choose the file you want to print...
-
- Using Gooffy as a desk-accessory will enable you to print files while
- your're doing something else, and so even under non-multitasking AES.
-
-
- Feel free to contact me for any suggestion or bug report.
- That's all... I hope you'll find this program useful...
