Subject: ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of GNU enscript-1.6.1
CC: st001906 AT HRZ1 DOT HRZ DOT TU-Darmstadt DOT De
Reply-To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is a port of GNU Enscript 1.6.1 to MSDOS/DJGPP.


        The binary and source package can be downloaded
        from SimTel.NET and mirrors:
          <ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/ens161b.zip>
          <ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/ens161s.zip>


      - Changes needed for NLS support with DJGPP.
      - All other changes are mostly based on the previous port
        (ens150x.zip) done by Eli Zaretskii.
        There are no new DJGPP *specific* user *visible* changes
        except that the binaries will look for the enscript.cfg
        file and the AFM font collection at the standard places,
        this are:
        /dev/env/DJDIR/etc for enscript.cfg and
        /dev/env/DJDIR/share/enscript for the AFM fonts.
        This is a little bit different from the way the previous port
        port worked. If you are familiar with the previuos version,
        you should not have any difficulties using this version.

        All changes I have done against the original GNU distribution
        are documented in the diffs file stored in the djgpp subdir
        of the source package.


      - It is highly recommended to deinstall the old port (ens150b.zip)
        *BEFORE* installing this new one. This package will install the
        configuration file: enscript.cfg into the etc dir and the collection
        of AFM fonts into the share/enscript dir. The author of GNU enscript
        has completely changed the AFM fonts names (plain DOS clean) and
        this implies that the new files will *NOT* overwrite the old ones
        when the binary package is installed. To avoid having a lot of
        useless AFM files in share/enscript and a wrong enscript.cfg file
        in share/enscript, it is *HIGHLY* recommended to deinstall the old
        enscript package before installing the new one running the command:

          rm -vf @manifest\ens150b.mft



        Send enscript specific bug reports directely to Markku Rossi 
        at <mtr AT iki DOT fi>.
        Send suggestions and bug reports concerning the DJGPP port to
        comp.os.msdos.djgpp or <djgpp AT delorie DOT com>.

Enjoy.
