Greetings Jon et.al,

I installed win32::printer using the graphical version of PPM. No
problems installing but it looks like this module is way more than I
need to just send plain text to a chosen printer, realtime. Any
suggestions as to how to do this (maybe a sample script?) would be
appreciated. I want to send simple ASCII text to a printer for which I
have the control codes. I want to be able to immediately send each
character and not deal with buffering or anything complex.
