[net.micro.atari16] ST Writer printer configuration files

jdg@elmgate.UUCP (Jeff Gortatowsky) (06/09/86)

Do any of you in net land have a document describing the contents of the
printer configuration file needed by ST writer?  Better yet has anyone
hacked up a program that edits this file (xyz.dat I believe)?
I'm gonna be getting a new printer and I'll need to modify/create 
another file.

xyzzx.dat is generated from xyzzx.txt using the configuration program
stwconf.prg. xyzzx.txt is a normal stwriter format file, it contains
enough comments to easily modify it for another printer. xyzzx.txt and
stwconf.prg are floating around on virtually every BBS. Hope this
helps.
