The Program
Welcome to FILEPR. This program will print out information to the printer,
screen or both the screen and printer. Its design is such that it can be
run from a batch file or the command line. This will allow you to print out
a listing of a file (such as some type of log file) keeping a hard copy of
a file that is to be deleted.
The COMMAND LINE format is:
FILEPR ? - This will print out instructions
FILEPR /R - This will allow you to enter registration information
FILEPR out [disk][path]filename.ext [/switch]
out - Mandatory and placement sensitive
S = screen output
P = printer output
B = both screen and printer output
[disk] - Optional disk (C:)
[path] - Optional path (\dos\)
filename.ext - Mandatory filename and extension to output
[/switch] - Optional switches
Sw Function
? This causes instructions to be printed.
D This will cause the file to be deleted after it
is printed. Caution there are no warnings.
F This will cause a FF on the printer or CLS on
Screen prior to printing
L This will cause a FF on the printer after printing
P This will cause the screen to pause every 20 lines.
R This will allow you to enter your registration
information.
Examples:
FILEPR B C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT /L This will print out to the screen and
the printer the AUTOEXEC.BAT file found
in the root directory of drive C: and
will form feed the printer when done.
FILEPR S B:\GAMES\RALLYE.DOC /F This will print to the screen a file
called RALLYE.DOC located on drive B:
directory \GAMES. The screen will clear
before printing starts.
FILEPR P TRAFFIC.LOG /D /F This will print to the printer a file
called TRAFFIC.LOG. The paper in the
printer will form feed before printing.
After the file is printed it will be
deleted.
Errors:
If errors are encountered they will be listed to the screen and saved to the
disk in a file ERROR.TXT. The program will not execute.
