OK, I've tried and tried and cannot get Multispool to work for me.  I even
e-mailed the guy who originally submitted it to info-mac and still I cannot
make it work.  So I have a request for one of those lucky souls out there who
*has* been able to make it work....could someone please take an 800K disk and
just install a simple system on it, with multifinder, the imagewriter driver,
and multispool (PrintMonitor and Backgrounder are *not* needed I have been
repeatedly told) and use DiskCopy 4.1 to make a .image file of this disk (test
it first to make sure Multispool works on it! :) ) and stuff and binhex it
and then mail it to me?  I know this would be time-consuming, but maybe if
some kind-hearted soul finds him or herself with some free time over the
weekend?  I'm think that if I can get ahold of a working copy of it I can
experiment and figure out exactly why that program is so flakey.  I will of
course post the result of my experimentation to the net for all to read and
benefit from.  Any takers?
