    I am  interested in  finding  a utility  (preferably in  the  public
    domain) that  will  enable  me  to  print  my  text  files  sideways
    (landscape).  Ideally, I  would like the source  code for the  tool,
    but a version  that runs  with my WANG  PC and  EPSON MX-80  printer
    would suffice.

    Please mail your responses directly to me, and I will summarize  and
    post to the net if there is enough interest.

    P.S.    I  am  aware  of  the  utility  from  FUNK  Software  called
            "SIDEWAYS",  but they tell me no version for the Wang PC yet
            exists.  They expect one to be released 1Q'86.
