We are now running new versions of hpd, lpd, cpd, lpr, hpr and cpr. The spoolers (?pr) now check for (and reject) attempts to print directories and report on the trailer page the number of pages printed. There has been some internal reorganization to accomodate a new print status command (coming soon, to screen near you!). Hpr and cpr have had their motion optimization improved. They also support a new option to specify a font requirement; more on this later. The daemons (?pd) now check that the mounted font as given in FONTFILE in the spool directory matches one requested by the spooler. This provides a mechanism (coming soon . . .) for changing fonts without messing up anyone's output. -- David Trueman @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!david
