Subject: Font Listing Program
Date: 30 Jan 89 19:54:01 GMT
The following is taken from 'PC Publishing' February 1989. It
is posted without permission and without any testing of the program.
I will test the program on my Varityper VT600+ printer within the
next few days.
I repeat:
It is posted without permission and without any testing of the
program.
I have found a few of the typos my self. Here is a diff. There
is still at least one bug left since I get nothing from my VT600.
$ diff fontlist.orig fontlist.ps
