	I have a situation where I have to queue a file for printing
at a lineprinter set up as a terminal queue from a macro-11 program.
I know how to print a buffer at a lineprinter, but can't figure
out how to queue a file for printing.  What I want to do is
execute "print/que=tte0:/nofeed" from the program, without
any kludges like $creprc.  We are running VMS 4.2 on an 11/780.
Anyone out here in netland got an idea?
