I have written a small applications that acts as an LPD server.  This
started out as a personal project but now looks like it may be useful to
others.  Its not finished yet and has not been thoroughly tested but
if there is interest in it, please drop me a message.

In short, the program allows you to setup LPD queues on your Mac which
in turn, prints to any AppleTalk connected printer on your network.  It
also has a very simple text to PostScript filter built in.
