I noticed such a program on the local RCP/M board in the PC section.
It took all parallel output and redirected it to a file.  As I don't
have a true IBM (Zenith Z-100), I didn't look past the .DOC file.
Check for this before you go to any amount of work.  The number for
the Allentown [PA] RCP/M is (215) 398-3937.
