- I have been messing around with the customization options of NB4, and
- changed the underlining default to 3--do not underline tabs, spaces, or
- punctuation. No sooner did I do this than the Postscript printer driver
- began to act very strangely indeed. It put part of the initialization sequ-
- ence on the second line of the action line, and hung the printer. I had to
- use the "stop q" command to clear the problem. It worked fine with the
- HP Lingua driver. In other words, this seems to be a Postsceipt problem.
- Before I figured out what the problem was, I reinstalled NB twice, but did
- not get scientific about the problem until the second reinstallation, when
- I printed a file without changing any defaults, then with some changes, until
- it screwed up. This underlining default seems to be the culprit. Odd.
