I deleted the email, but someone was talking about changing the printers options to point to a file. the example that goes to /dev/lpd or whatever is going directly to the printer, it's not a real file the example with "|gs --options file=" is to send the information into ghostscript, which deals with postscript files and the like. the pipe ( shown by the | symbol) to gs means that the information is given to ghostscript, and the other options there looked like it had a temporary file to save to. have a bit more of a look at that, as it seems to be what you were after HTH adam -- What does the 'it' mean in "What time is it?"? _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
