I have used UniTerm to print and save Tek MetaFiles with no problem. It seems to
work depending upon which GDOS you're using.  Of course, the printer and 
meta.sys file must be in your assign.sys file.  But, I have found that with
EXACTLY the same assign.sys file, UniTerm would print with my G+Plus but would
NOT work with the ACM GDOS included with the Gemini desktop.  Don't ask me why,
it's a mystery to me.  By the way, I finally discovered a program to convert
the .GEM files produced by UniTerm into the standard .GEM format.  If there are
enough requests I will post it to comp.binaries.atari.st.  It can be found on
GEnie as well.
