- Description:
-
- !Spool sends a file (or series of files) multitaskingly in the desktop to
- either the serial port or the parallel port. It uses the Block Drivers and so
- can use serial ports other than the internal one.
-
- Support is present for the use of the special printer cable used with Computer
- Concepts "TurboDrivers" when sending data to the parallel port so that the
- data appears correctly at the end of the cable.
