I wrote a printout program for my Panasonic KXP1124 (no guarantee of compatibility with other printers). It accepts either DEGAS or TINY format files of black and white screens only, and it doesn't replace the alt-help command because I couldn't figure out how to do that. Instead I use Braner's BARREL to grab screens and store them as DEGAS files, which is crude and wastes storage space. If I want to keep stuff long term I translate it to TINY. The printout is either 1, 2 or 3 dots per screen pixel; the last prints sideways on the paper and almost exactly fills a sheet, while at 1 dot per pixel the printout is less than 4 inches across. john purbrick jpexg@ai.mit.edu
