*********   Help    ********   Help   ********    Help    ********
I am trying to implement an LPR client using RFC 1179.  When trying to 
send fortran flow control to the server machine, I send a control file
with an 'r'+file+LF.  What exactly should I be sending as file???
Currently, I am sending the name of the df (same as is being sent by
the 03 (receive data file) subcommand.  So to sumerize I'm sending the
following data:

/*connect to remote host*/
[02]<queue>[LF]
[02]<size of control file> cfA100POJ1[LF]     /*POJ1 = hostname, 100 = JobNo */
CAS400-1.Mankato.MSUS.Edu[LF]
HAS400-1.Mankato.MSUS.Edu[LF]
J<Jobname>[LF]
L<Userid>[LF]
N<Source name>[LF]
P<Userid>[LF]
rdfA100POJ1[LF]
/*wait for ack here*/
[03]<size of data file> dfA100POJ1[LF]
<insert entire data file here>
[0]
/*wait for ack here*/
/*disconnect*/

For output we get a complete printout on the host... but the fortran flow
control is NOT interpreted and the "1" "0" "+".. etc. are printed.
