CheckPrt is a little tool to check in a script-file if a printer is
available.
So you save the long, long ,long , loooooong time it takes to show
you the 'Printer trouble ....' Requester.
Here a little scriptfile, showing the usage :
------------------------------------------------------------------------
| failat 10 ; CheckPrt returns 10 if there is no printer available |
| and 0 is there is one |
| CheckPrt |
| IF warn |
| echo " Sorry, there is no printer available " |
| echo " " |
| ELSE |
| echo " You are a winner. Your printer seems to be available" |
| echo " " |
| ENDIF |
------------------------------------------------------------------------
ATTENTION :
CheckPrt only works with printers using the parallel-port of
your Amiga. !!!!
I've tested CheckPrt with 3 different kind of printers without any
trouble.
If something's going wrong, if you have any criticism, error-reports,
gifts or something else write to
