ly it's not a big issue. As I'm using qemu anyway, I can
easily save the lpt output. I have also found something I can use on
the host Linux box to interpret the PCL output and convert it it PDF -
gpcl6 from a local compile of ghostpdl. I've tested - the output seems
to be just fine.

I will look into that too.

Ah, this seems to work well, for printing a named file. Can certainly
print plain text with lpr [address of printer] filename. As for getting
output from the apps I'm using, it would mean capturing an LPT port to
a file someh
may even be ways to provide any
additional filters required at that level - it is outside the scope of
this question to worry about that.)

It seems I have broken packages - got networking now but having a lot
of problems otherwise. Any easy way to square it all up again?

I had FreeDOS 1.2 working quite nicely, networking included, on qemu,
but I am lost as to (a) how I originally achieved it (b) how I might do
likewise with 1.3 - is there any specific documentation I can follow?

How would I configure and compile a new keyboard layout, if for reasons
of having a non-standard one I need to?
Also, how do I gain access to the packages to install through fdimples?
I do have a network connection, but can only now see what I have
installed.
