Hi Harry,
I checked and he does have CRLFTRANS=1 in his textonly.cfg. Funny thing is that any
of his KDE stuff (KDEmail, Knews, etc.) stair-steps also and I was not under the
impression (but, hey, I could be wrong) that these were all text files. In fact, the
only thing that prints correctly is netscape (and "Hey, Anatoli, print it through
Netscape" aint gonna cut it)
Thanks,
-Jen
