The printOut defaults to fileOut. However, if you look under
/usr/smalltalk/printing (or wherever you are storing it) there are
files which, when filed in, will make printOut generate postscript
files when "printOut" is invoked. This works very nicely on postscript
printers, but cannot be used if you do not have postscript.
Hope this helps -- Darren New
