You can't use pipes. lpr relies on the file extension to determine the file type and invoke the proper filter. When using pipes, it assumes postscript AFAIK. In each case creating the file doesn't hurt. LP will create a file anyway. Michael. On Wed, 15 Sep 2010, Leonardo M. Ramé wrote: Ni

I changed it to a very similar program, but one which can be built with a single instruction: program driver; uses asmio; {$ASMMODE Intel} procedure tes; assembler; [alias:'tes']; asm push ebp mov ebp,esp mov EAX,65 push EAX call printc leave ret end; begin tes; end. It crashes insi
