About two years ago, I wrote a printer driver for windows to print to a really old IBM ebcdic printer, what a pain! Even worse, I had to write it so it can do complete capabilites, such as bold, underline, bidir printing..... Luckly, the project was canceled before I had to write a true-type interface and graphics..... Ever had to controll a printer with everything mesaured in 1/28ths of a charactor, and you only had 80something letters to work with, you had to form anything weird by useind the . a bunch of times, useing the 1/28th of an letter increments....... Whoops, no artistic content in message...... |"-. // | | | \ | | | | |___ | | | ,'""`. | ". | | / | | | | | |_," `.__,' | | O Guess I'd better add some art........ -- --ran...@slip.net (Randy Gardner) --http://www.slip.net/~randyg/index.htm - *New* Download a maze program that lets you actually walk *inside* the maze!!
