Can the DOS PRINT command be used to print binary files?  As I 
read the manual, tab characters are expanded and through 
experiment I find printing terminated by an ASCII 26 character.  
Are there differences between various versions of PRINT.COM?  
Also, if I have to patch PRINT.COM will it work with other 
versions of DOS than the one it came with?
