	Does anyone know what the purpose of LPT1.OS2 is.

	I am trying to write an interpreter, but I cannot find the
	most efficient way to capture printer output.

	I have a postscript interpreter, and I set the printer as
	Postscript printer on LPT1.OS2.

	Can someone please tell me how I can trap the output going
	to LPT1.OS2 - is that what it is for ?

	Thanks
