DISCLAIMER & OTHER ISSUES.
ClipPrint.exe, written by Dave Saville is copyright 1996 by Dave
Saville. This program is freely distributable, and may be used by and
distributed along with any other software, provided that these files
are not internally modified, nor sold as a complete package by themselves.
This program is provided "as is" without any warranty of any kind
either expressed or implied. If it breaks you get to keep *all* the
pieces.
This program is 'postcardware'. If you like it please send me a
postcard of something interesting in your local area, address below.
If you don't like it - tough.
WHAT DOES IT DO?
I do a lot of remote support work and, at some unearthly time in the
morning, have several telnet sessions open as well as 3270. What I need
for the postmortem at the office is some evidence. It's all there in
various sessions and their history buffers, but I only want odd bits.
Copying with the mouse is fine but then what? Would you believe that the
clipboard viewer WON'T PRINT! So I wrote ClipPrint. Put it on your
toolbar/launchpad and one click will print the contents of the clipboard,
provided it contains text.
INSTALLATION
ZIP file created with INFO-ZIP.
UNZIP the program to a directory somewhere useful. Note that it needs
the EMX dlls etc.. Drag the ClipPrint program to the launchpad.
If you don't print to LPT1 then open the settings notebook and change
the parameter(s) to what you do use.
-p LPT1 or whatever
-f filename Prints to file intstead of printer
-a append to existing file. Note that ClipPrint will insert CR/LF before
appended clips.
HISTORY
1.1 July 1996 - -a & f options added. -p corrected in notes. Version 1.0
notes missed out that it was required :-(.
1.0 July 1996 - Initial release.
BUGS & FEATURES :-)
Printing to a non existing port can be fun! I do not know how to tell
if there is actually a device on the end of a port.
Enjoy.
