- Hi all,
- Commercial DOS programs can load a printer driver at run-time from a
- selection. I would like to do the same. It should then be possible to
- write a new driver for a different printer without altering the
- program code. How is this done? I think the drivers are actually EXE
- files, but an EXE file has only one entry point, and surely such a
- driver has to do different functions?
- This has to be done in C++ (perhaps with assembler help if absolutely
- necessary.)
- Any help will be appreciated.
- Thank You
- Johan Smit
