I'm looking for a program which will accept ASCII text and print out the corresponding code11 or code39 barcodes. The language of the program, operating system and output format (Postscript, HPGL, etc) are flexible, especially if the program source is available. Thanks, robert_l_armstrong@cup.portal.com

Commercial code is fine, I'm willing to pay for this (although if it's a lot of $$, perhaps I will wait a bit -- this is not a high-priority project). This is for MS-DOS machines, in case I wasn't clear; the C compiler is Microsoft.

The first lines of the script follow: #!/bin/sh # upc -- print upc code with PostScript # usage: upc prod code-5 code-5 # prod is the product type (zero for store items) # code-5 is a five digit code (needs two of these) # # Copyright (C) 1986 by Pipeline Associates, Inc. # Permission is granted to use and distribute as long as this copyright # notice remains intact and it is distributed free of charge.
