Short: Makes printer.device more CGFX/P96 compatible v1.10
Author: sichler@rumms.uni-mannheim.de (Stefan Sichler)
Uploader: sichler@rumms.uni-mannheim.de (Stefan Sichler)
Type: util/sys
When running on a CyberGFX or Picasso96 system, some programs (like WordWorth5)
try to print out rastport dumps of rastports having a CGFX chunky bitmap.
Unfortunately, the printer.device does only support planar bitmaps.
So PrinterCGFXPatch patches the printer.device in such a way, that chunky
bitmaps are converted to planar ones before printing.
This helps at least WordWorth5 to be able to print colors again.
