Printing on Win platforms
type: item
description: Hello, I predominantly work with IDL on unix systems. But now I have a routine that needs to be able to print text on a win95/98 platform as well. On unix, I would create a temporary file with the text to be printed and then do SPAWN, 'lpr '+tempfilename to print the file. Is there an equivalent method for win? How about a better method for either? (Dave, do you cover this in your updated book?) -- Bernard Puc AETC, INC. bpuc@va.aetc.com 1225 Jefferson Davis Highway #800 (703) 413-0500 Arlington, VA 22202
