(dh undefined, the previewer prints big letters upside down and lpr refuses to print) Machsys.ps was obtained by running dvips on the output of tex. Unfortunately, dvips at cmu does not produce encapsulated postscript. I managed to coerce all files to print except machsys.ps. (In fact I could print all of it except the last 4 pages in the file). Has anyone succeeded in printing the cmu mach docs? clement@opus.cs.mcgill.ca -- news <clement

I printed the MACH documentation, and it came out quite nicely. I used BYU telnet to get them to a MAC, then used a program called "Send-PS" to send it to the Apple Laserwriter. I initially had trouble because I was using binary mode transfer to ftp it to the MAC. Postscript, though, is ASCII. Binary did not seem to work. Anyway, good luck. Hope you can find this program around somewhere.
