I am attempting to write a 1.3 printer driver for a CItoh ProWriter
using Manx C and am having a number of problems. (No Laughing, Please).
I believe that I am having problems when the driver functions are being
called, but not sure.

I purchased the 1.3 developer's update from Commodore, but I'm a little
lost and sure could use some help.

1) Is there a 1.3 compatible ProWriter driver out there that supports
more than the lowest resolution? (Ok, so I'm lazy)

2) Is my problem that I am using Manx C?

3) Is there any source code that is close which I could look at (Manx),
because I really would like to figure this thing out.

Again, I have purchased the copyrighted stuff from Commodore, so no
need to duplicate that. Just would like to to get a little better
resolution out of my ProWriter.

Thanks,
