I'm just printing most of the on-line documentation and observe
the following behaviour when printing from WriteNow:
  _ Files printed when the printer is idle appear first page first, i.e.
    I then have the fun of reversing the pages by hand.
  _ Files printed when the printer is busy land in the queue and are
    printed last page first, i.e. no reordering necessary.
Has anyone observed a similar behaviour?
Does this make any sense to anyone?

Similar topic: is there any way to print a WriteNow document without
opening it on the screen? I.e. is there a way to type something like
"WriteNowPrint foo1.wn foo2.wn foo3.wn ..." ? And how do I print a
WriteNow document if I'm not sitting in front of a CUBE?

Ha! Good anwers anyone?
