A hearty thanks goes out to all who responded to my query regarding
remote printing via UUCP.  I received about ten very good replies,
some even with sample shell scripts! (Thanks!)  What I eventually did
was modify the printer interface to first uucp the files to
the printer host in /usr/spool/uucppublic, then do a uux to actually
print the document.  In our version of Unix, it seems we can't
redirect or pipe into a uux and have it work successfully.  In any
case, thanks to all of you!
