hi... i have a smith-corona tp-1 printer and i want to use it with atari-writer. the problem is that it witll only line-feed when atariwriter sends out a chr(155), and not carriage return. i have solved the problem in the past by saving the file to a file, and running a basic program that formats the pages and send a chr(13) (^M) at the end of a line. my question is: is there a printer driver publicly available that will do this from atari-writer? i'm using a pretty generic printer interface, and i have a p:r:connection that i'm only using for serial i/o but could use as a printer interface also (if i get a cable). i've only had this problem with the tp-1, and not my seikosha sp-1000, so it's apparently some difference in how the sp1 handles CRLF. thanks, mike begley spam@iastate.edu
