- SET_ is a printer setup utility. It comes in Epson (SETE) and Star (SETD)
- versions. They differ only in the commands sent to the printer. If one of these
- programs is run without a command tail, the following menu will appear:
-
-
- (A) Pica (10) (J) Cancel Italics
-
- (B) Elite (12) (K) Skip Over Perf 2 Lines
-
- (C) Condensed (17) (L) Set Left Margin at 10
-
- (D) Unidirectional Printing (M) Expanded Print
-
- (E) Emphasized (N) Cancel Expanded
-
- (F) Cancel Emphasized (O) Top Margin 2 Lines (SETD only)
-
- (G) Double Strike (P) Print Test Line
-
- (H) Cancel Double Strike (Q) Quit
-
- (I) Italics (R) Reset Printer
-
- The commands shown can be typed in either upper or lower case. Whatever is
- typed will be echoed to the screen. Any of these commands can be used in a com-
- mand tail. For example, I use SETD RBLD to give me elite type, a 10 column left
- margin and unidirectional printing on my Star Delta 10. With a command tail,
- SET_ executes the legal commands in the tail, ignores anything else, and returns
- to DOS. The menu does not appear unless all of the commands in the tail are
- illegal, in which case it does come up.
- You can change the commands to suit yourself by modifying the source and
- reassembling. I used Microsoft's Macro Assembler 3.0 to create the .COM file.
- SETD and SETE are hereby placed in the public domain by Joseph C. Hudson,
- 4198 Warbler Dr. Flint, MI 48504. I make no promises about the performance
- of the programs, impose no restrictions on their use. I hope they help you.
