Hi, if your working with ascii (test) files you can send it thru a2ps. "a2ps -r filename" will send it in landscape mode to the default printer. The other handy utility is fold. "fold -s some_file | a2ps -r " will do line returns in whitespace and then sends it in landscape as postscript to default printer. This still send thru lp, but the utility calls it. -- Pete Nesbitt, rhce -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
