for my own benefit, i categorized the options one might find in
the configuration file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. it's not meant to be
an explanation of these directives, just a categorization. if it
makes your life easier, enjoy.
(the strange format is because i wrote it in emacs outline mode
for the moment. if you have suggestions for improvement, drop me
a note. some day, i'll come up with an XML format and stylesheet
for reference cards, unless someone wants to send me one. :-)
