We have access to a number of machines, but only one has an hpgl plotter attached to it ( the plotter is /dev/ttyd3). Is there some way we could access it from other machines? I was thinking along the lines of some mail type server, where you would send mail to plotter@... and if there is something in /usr/mail/plotter the file gets plotted. Any help solving this problem would be appreciated. H----- PS can email directly if you'd like at zuccola@max.gatech.edu
