Version 1.0, that is. Absolutely correct! I'm told (sic) that the Laserwriter printer support is truly amazing! No matter what you print, no matter what options you set, or how many users print, the Laserwrite spews out blank, meangingless pages! Occasionally it will interject a few random commentaries on things unrelated to what you printed, or asked it to print. I'm also told, that 386BSD v1.0 is quite capable of throwing itself at the ground and missing. -Andrew -- #!/bin/sh - ============================================== echo "Andrew Gillham gillham@andrews.edu" echo "Winix Hacker" #=========================================================
