Specifically, the default script is kinda crummy for my Epson 9-pin clone. I'm tempted to try to port some stuff that was on my UNIX PC but that was for the R3.0 lp subsystem and the R4 lp subsystem looks different enough to cause trouble. C=, will 2.0 have more printer specific drivers? PostScript? HP laserjet? Epson 9 & 24 pin? Also, anybody know if the nroff/troff on 1.1 is DITROFF or the older stuff? I've got an old epson filter from my UNIX PC that I'm going to try to get to work. I'll get nroff -ms to output to my Epson as pretty as it was on my UNIX PC or die trying! -Rob
