- On aminet there is HWGPOST7.lha, which will soon be updated to version Beta0.8.
- It is newer and "improved" over the old post V1.7
-
- However anything which works on a typical old printer will work just fine
- on the old post V1.7.
-
- When in doubt ALWAYS blame Microsoft, and/or Word, and/or the Mac, not post.
- Post really does recognise the command get under normal conditions, unless
- the postscript file has done something really dumb, (which is typical of
- Word).
