- Not just somebody 8-).... I did the lpr/lpd port and uploaded the binaries
- to stasi. I hope Jerry finds them worthy. Although there is a README with
- the bins, I'll give a short diexcription. I did not directly tie the code
- the lp facilities. On my machines I have no printers, I use lpr to print
- to printers that have queues on other machines. But, I believe it may be
- possible to set the things up so that a remote machine could use the lpd
- daemon to print to a printer directly tied to the 3B2. I've just never
- tried it. Anyway, the README has my email, if want to try it and have
- problems, drop me a line!
