Re: [SL] HELP NEEDED:Printing in Windows

[Tero A. <te...@pr...>]

This solution seems very promising, there is however one small problem:

gsprint command needs filename to be passed as :  " filename "=20
									not:	 -filename
If use:
=A0 =A0 %printer =3D ( Default =3D> 'gsprint -');
it will be passed as ' gsprint -filename ', and ends up with error=20
so the big question is
how to change it to be:
				'gsprint "filename"'

Now if I only could find out how to modify sql-ledger so that it is passed =
so.=20
=46orm.pm?
ANY IDEAS ??
