Do you mean to say that you think it's reasonable for someone in a computer science program not to know the difference between the computer on which he's generating the file, the machine that will be spooling the file, and the machine that will actually be printing the file? If so, then CS is in even worse shape than I thought. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Carl J Lydick | INTERnet: CARL@SOL1.GPS.CALTECH.EDU | NSI/HEPnet: SOL1::CARL Disclaimer: Hey, I understand VAXen and VMS. That's what I get paid for. My understanding of astronomy is purely at the amateur level (or below). So unless what I'm saying is directly related to VAX/VMS, don't hold me or my organization responsible for it. If it IS related to VAX/VMS, you can try to hold me responsible for it, but my organization had nothing to do with it.
