Some time ago I saw some goodies float by in net.sources.mac that allowed
the Mac to spool files through a VAX.  There was some kind of DA or print
driver that made the Mac log into a UNIX(tm) system and upload the file,
and some software on the UNIX(tm) end to massage the files.

Now what I actually have is a VMS system, but I am willing to port the code.

If the thing is no longer public domain or if it was a figment of my
imagination, purchasing software to do this is also an option.

Any pointers will be appreciated.  As always, please MAIL responses and 
I'll summarize.  "Thanks in advance..."
