I was thinking about the Deskjet paper size problem in 2.5, and it
occurred to me that it might be nice to be able to control that sort
of thing from an external configuration file, thereby allowing the
use of non-standard paper sizes, as well as bug fixes of this sort
without recompiling.

I'd imagine (not having looked at the source) that there are some
other similar parameters that perhaps could be set up this way,
rather than being hard-coded into the program.

Just a thought...

b.

P.S.:  Does anyone have binary patches for the known bugs in 2.5?
