[REBOL] Printing in REBOL
From: rphilipp:suffolk:lib:ny:us at: 14-Jan-2001 22:04
Hi,
Someone had posted a reply to my inquiry about printing or re-directing
output to a printer in Dos/Windows. I can't find the message but they
mentioned that the amiga in affect maps i/o ports as files. I think it was
someone in support.
Thanks for your help, I've been able to redirect output directly to a
printer from REBOL/View using the scheme:
example:
>> a: "Hello,World!"
>> write %lpt1 a
end example.
This outputs to my printer but I have to manually eject the paper. I need to
know how to send out special characters like LF's to my printer via REBOL.
If any body knows how let me know. I'm still searching thru REBOL
documentation. I may need to send HEX characters or something.
