I am interested in being able to capture the printer port and redirect
it to a file.  In other words make the info going to the printer be
saved in a file instead.  Are there and utils for this, or is there a
simple Prefs or AmigaDOS command that I missed along the way?  Any hints
or tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
