• lpr-bash-0,9

  This release is a complete rewrite in order to improve the code, increase compatibility (by using a subset of the printcap format), speed (through multithreading), security (single script core) and fixing so many flaws of its predecessors (gentoo ebuild fixed, using syslog(-ng) by default, better locking, lpq/-rm are working now, testpage added). What else to say - please test it!

  0.9: "new and shiny, nice and tiny!" - complete rewrite, improved code - single-script lpr/lprm/lpq/lpstat/etc. (easier to check agains rootkits) - much smaller in size (about 50% of its predecessor!) - lpq and lprm become useful finally (especially when using preview) - changed printcap format to a subset of the standard format - multithreading (nonblocking lpr), makes e.g. OpenOffice much faster - better locking (using a single lockfile; locking devices, not names) - uses syslog(-ng) by default - exit codes (enable other programs to spot lpr-bash errors) - ability to test printer (with a prototype testpage)
