[net.unix] modemcap/printcap/dpy sources??

spw2562@ritcv.UUCP (Fishhook) (01/04/86)

Does anyone out there in netland know if there exists a printer capability
library similar to the termcap stuff?  Preferably public domain.  We have
a home-brew version running at my place on employment, but it is very
non-standard, nothing like termcap, and you can only configure one printer
at a time. The last is no big problem, because we use small systems with
only one printer per system.  But it would sure be nice to have the standard
package running, if there is one.

Also, I'm looking for the sources for the DPY library (similar to curses)
that were posted.  I am on a student account here at RIT, so I don't
have access to net.sources.  mwm@ucbopal, if you're listening, I would
have written you about this, but none of my mail would go through.

Also, anyone know what happened to the discussion of a modemcap package?

Thanx in advance!!
