I am looking for a utility that will take what is sent to the parallel
port, intended for the printer, and re-direct it to a file. This is
to get around a brain-dead software package that will not let me save
to a file. I use something like this on my "other", read not PC or
clone, computer and I really need it now for a PC/XT clone. Any help
or leads to such a beast would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
Oh, by the way did I mention I would PREFER if it was PD, but I am
desperate.

Scott: There is a program called PRT2FILE.ARC (I think I got the name right). I use the program all the time and it works great. I think it is available on SIMTEL20. Betty Harvey David Taylor Research Center <harvey@dtrc> (v)301-227-4901
