Hi there fellow NeXT-Net-sters!

I've been following this group for about 3-4 months now.  Some
great advice out there!

I have a couple of short PS related questions that I haven't
been able to find the answers to:

Under 1.0, in YAP, you could print by including the PRINTERDEVICE
and COPYPAGE commands.  But under 2.0 - PRINTERDEVICE is *supposedly*
replaced by MACHPORTDEVICE (or so the :-) *evil* docu writer tried
to make me believe), i.e. I haven't been able to make it work.  (Gosh,
even yelling at the cube and holding my breath doesnt help!  :-)   )
So, aside from issuing the "lpr" command in the Shell, is there a
better way to process my simple code as I'm testing - from within
YAP?  (Under 1.0 I just commented out out PRINTERDEVICE when I
wanted the output on screen - then EXECUTE....)

Also, I may be dumb, but how do I convince PS to allow me to include
a TIFF file as an image.  Is this possible?

Thanks in advance!    Paul.  (yoshida@tansei.cc.u-tokyo.ac.jp)
