Hi; I want to write some small scripts for printing files. I've looked in man lpr and googled. Can someone tell me where I can find the appropriate information to do the following? Script #1: Print any text file to 5.5" x 8.5" sheets of paper. I keep my scrap printer paper and cut it in half for notes to myself. I want a lpr script that can use the same scrap paper to print notes etc. that I write to myself. I write them on all kinds of different word processors and text editors but want to print them unformatted. lpr has the -o option but doesn't mention how I might use it set custom paper size. Where should I look? Script #2: Some suggestions on how I might go about accomplishing Script #2 would be appreciated. I want to start a lpr print job X number of lines down on the first sheet or page. This is so that if I have a note that is, say, 12 lines long and I want to add more I can rerun the sheet through the printer and add the new text (from a different text file) to the white space after line 12 of the sheet of paper. All of the above can be down through a word processor but I am hoping to set something up that is quick and dirty. -- Regards Bill
