Hi Eric: Finally back to computer stuff. Downloaded GRAPHICS but unable
to unzip. Tried unz551x3.exe (closest thing on referenced site below)
but dosen't work?
Also, I have no .dosemurc anywhere on my computer (according to the
command "sudo find / -iname '.dosemurc' -print". Please advise ? Bob T.

Hi Robert,
to find my GRAPHICS for DOS, check our list:
http://www.freedos.org/freedos/software/ - base - graphics
Maybe I should have mentioned the names graphpin, graph-hp
and graph-ps, as graphics is just a wrapper for the tree :-)
While you can potentially use
the POSTSCRIPT variant inside DOSEMU, it might need
some extra tuning of your DOSEMU configuration to let
DOSEMU and Linux know that you (GRAPHICS) is sending
already graphical data and not just plain text.
P.S. This approach also seems worth exploring. What modifications
would I make to the config file?
I think .dosemurc in your home directory could contain:
$_printer_options = "%s>/tmp/dosemu.ps"
$_printer_command = "cat"
but it is more likely that this works - default is lp, not XX:
$_printer = "XX XX"
This creates LPT1 and LPT2 as both printing to the Linux
printer called XX, which in turn can be created as some
fake printer which actually prints into a file with some
suitable tweaking of your lpr / lprng / cups configuration.
Actually I do not know how to tweak cups, I only tweaked
one of the older server configs as far as I remember...
Maybe somebody else can give a hint about tweaking :-).
