Try this in your configuration: $_lpt1 = "cat >> ~/dosemu.lpt1" $_lpt2 = "cat >> ~/dosemu.lpt2" $_lpt3 = "cat >> ~/dosemu.lpt3" Now if it's still not working, either 1) there is an issue with editing the dosemu configuration 2) there is an issue with the DOS application. Are you using per-user dosemu config or systemwide? Try to make both the same if in doubt. -- Med Vennlig Hilsen, A.
