Charles,
I found your message on cygwin ( http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/ )
but could not reply there. I followed your advisor and made my
enscript worked!!!
I added one line on my cshrc.csh
setenv PRINTER \\\\RW-PRT-02\\HP5SI-2
and use the default /etc/enscript.cfg
The only trouble I have is that for every job I printed,
I received an extra page with such contents:
PostScript Error Handler
Offending Command =
Error = nametype :undefined
Stack =
Any idea?
How to escape such error message?
