OKay once again, I have a problem, this time with printer.device. If finally
have a half-way working printer driver. Here's the catch- whenever I send any
of the 'justify escape sequences' (ESC[nF) to the printer, it doesn't seem
to recognize them. In fact, what seems to happen is the following. If I have
an entry in CommandTable for the sequence, I get nothing. If I don't have the
sequence in the table (or rather, the entry is "\377"), it is treated as a
aRIN command.
I have been able to determine these facts by using CMD (Thanks, Carolyn) and
KPrintF (I'm using Manx 3.4) inside of DoSpecial(). Has anyone else experienced
this problem before? (All my other sequences seem to do just fine...)
Any and all help appreciated. David.

BTW, due to a recently discovered bug in the printer.device ESC[1 F (word fill) is never sent to the printer.

Make sure that you have an entry in the table in the data.c file for each cmd sequence (even if its \377).
