I have been having trouble with Sozobon C libraries -- dlibs. It seems
that if I try and use  stdprn  to send output to the printer like 
expect then it goes to the screen yet if I open a  PRN:  file and use
this file stream things work fine. Examples to follow.


/*
	This does not send output to the printer as expected. Instead it
	goes to the screen.
*/
#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
        fprintf( stdprn, "foobar\n" );
}



/*
	This does send output to the printer.
*/
#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
        register FILE* prn;
        prn = fopen( "PRN:", "wb" );
        fprintf( prn, "foobar\n" );
}


I have looked at the code  MAIN.C  and the _iob table and nothing seems
odd. I've quick glanced over the code for  FOPEN.C  and  OPEN.C, also
also printf code right down to  WRITE.C. I can't figure what the problem
or differences are?

Could Dale Schumacker or someone who may have tried to use  stdprn tell
me what either I'm doing wrong or if there is library fix I missed.
