- After converting some of our LaserWriters from Transcript to NP2.0, we
- discovered that ^M chars were handled differently. Using the command line:
- pl <ascii file> :postprint -r1
- ...we were able to revert back to the expected output. In order to make the
- conversion transparent to our users, I'd like to be able to change the
- default on the "server side" so the command line option isn't needed.
- I've tried several hacks to no avail...hardcoding the option in the "lpd_
- script"...adding the option to the .param file in the spool directory...etc...
-
- Any other suggestions would be appreciated!
