This is mass-printing-of-files-on-the-NeXT in view mode; [Up]
Date: Sun 03-Apr-1991 05:48:05 From: mcdonald@fornax.UUCP (Ken Mcdonald) Subject: mass printing of files on the NeXT According to the manual entry for "open", I should be able to print a directory full of .rtfd files by issuing the mach command open -a edit -p * However, this just gives me garbage, even though open -a edit file opens the file correctly under the edit application, and printing from edit then correctly prints the file. What's going on? Also, when I pring out the documentation, I prefer to print in portrait (i.e. standard letter style) rather than the landscape mode (with huge typefaces) that all the docs seem to be issued in. I there some way to specify portrait-mode printing when doing it from the mach shell? (Assuming, that is, that I can get command-line printing to work at all.) Thanks in advance, Ken Mcdonald mcdonald@cs.sfu.ca
