(FreeBSD, ...).
Fr 22 Nov 2002 19:13:29 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* SETUP: important bugfix
config files for remote printing have been secured too much
so that lpd, who runs under "daemon" permissions under BSD,
was unable to read the config file smbclient.conf with
permissions 600 root:daemon.
So 10 Nov 2002 17:02:27 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* update the apsfilterrc(5) manual page. Every option is now
documented. Updated especially the section concerning the
different apsfilterrc conifg files. Big warning NOT to use
user manageable config files. But I documented it, because
this option is still useful for "single-user" systems, where
security is not an issue.
So 10 Nov 2002 13:54:56 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* document new pretty command line option introduced with
ml-2002-04-14.patch

* prepare for version 7.2.3
* Michael Lossin: unbreak printing via smbclient, SETUP was
o.k., but a typo in apsfilter broke things.
* Michael Loin, ml-2002-04-14.patch
- add support for "ijsgimpprint" driver (in new driver/gimp/ directory)
- update support for "ijs" driver (hpijs-1.0.x) to accomodate to new
interface
- add "pretty=0/1/2" command line option (plus PRETTY_PRINTING=0/1/2
variable) to explicitly set the highlight level for text-to-PostScript
converters (none/normal/heavy)
- add RECODE_PROLOGUE and RECODE_EPILOGUE variables to be used
before/after "recode" conversion (will be used in addition to
RAW_PROLOGUE and RAW_EPILOGUE)
- fix "remote copies" parameter to lpr
- move several SETUP files to the .../etc/apsfilter
directory instead of .../share/apsfilter (which
might be write-protected)
- clean up template apsfilterrc to separate default
values from examples
Note: If you want to test the ijsgimpprint driver, please bear in mind
that any strange behaviour you'll get is most likely caused by the
driver itself, not apsfilter. The driver itself is still kind of
buggy (I checked 4.2.1-pre5), but apsfilter support should be robust
(since it's only syntactic stuff compared to the "stp" driver).
The gimp-print folks have announced that the "stp" driver will be
phased out after 4.2.x, so I guess support for it will eventually
be removed from apsfilter as well. (Maybe we should do the same
with "hpdj" and the old "hpijs" driver, since both have been obsoleted.)
So 24 Mr 2002 09:27:49 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
Added FAQ entry regarding:
"Is is possible to persuade apsfilter to attach EOT to PS jobs?"
So 3 Mr 2002 21:10:50 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Loin <phallobst@web.de>, ml-2002-03-03.patch

DUPLEX_ODD_FIRST variables for page order
selection in fake duplex mode
- add optional blank page to make document

* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>, ml-2002-01-14.patch
- while in aps2file mode, don't deliver error mails, rather
send messages to stderr only
- setup/devices-6.01, setup/printer-6.01 and setup/printer-ps
are obsolete
- new printer: pips/sc70s
- cleanup for setup/printer-epson
Fr 11 Jan 2002 23:01:13 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Release apsfilter 7.2.1 (MFC)
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- Makefile.in: use ln -sf ("force")
- SETUP, aps2file, apspreview: fix sed (old style) regular
expression problems by using awk. Some systems does't use
gnu sed for backward compatibility reasons (FreeBSD,...) not
to break existing scripts. GNU sed (Linux) uses "modern REs",
FreeBSD for example uses "basic REs" as of 1003.2.
See re_format(7) for more info.
- use "chown user:group" syntax, since some OS doesn't support
old style (chown user.group) anymore (FreeBSD-current, ...)
- fix some HP driver mapping in MAPPING file
Do 10 Jan 2002 21:38:30 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* For 7.2.0, MFC
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
* make handbook build process cleaner
- new doc/Makefile
- new doc/handbook.html.in
- get rid of source.html.in
- convert apsfilter4.gif to apsfilter4.png
- Makefile: install apsfilter4.png
- configure: remove source.html.in
Mi 9 Jan 2002 22:03:18 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Change Version to 7.2.0, because of new features like
supporting Novell remote printer.
* Adjust ANNOUNCE file for new apsfilter version
* MFC: Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>, ml-2002-01-09.patch
- support for NetWare printer servers (with ncprint or nprint);
configuration via .../QUEUE/netware.conf
- fix: aps2file and apspreview handle printer aliases
- fix: hpijs drivers were wrong in setup/printer-7.00
(but correct in setup/printer-hpijs)
- fix: only preview if aps2file generated PostScript
- stp/escp2-1160 fix (thanks to <andrew@ugh.net.au>)
- various fixes in driver/MAPPING
- adjusted various omni/ scripts to use more reasonable
resolution settings
- configure variables: --with-printcap=...
and --with-spooldir=... (nice for local installations in $HOME)
- relaxed SETUP: don't check for "root", just for read/write
permissions in (probably $HOME) dirs; as root do a full check,
however
- new REMOTE_COPIES variable: tells lpd and NetWare printer servers
to do copies themselves (enabled by default), so we save some
network traffic
- enable PSgs to honor HARDWARE_COPIES
- never ending story: the bjc600 driver script has
four new siblings (bjc50, bjc70, bjc4000, bjc7000)
to properly handle printers with varying resolutions
- use secure temporary directory in SETUP
- various small SETUP clean-ups
- create "basedir" link at install time already
- doc/Makefile: "make clean" should remove handbook.html
since "configure" re-creates it from handbook.html.in
Sa 29 Dez 2001 21:39:10 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Roll new release 7.1.1
Sa 29 Dez 2001 21:35:27 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
- MFC (Merges From Current):
- manpage cleanups, update BUGS and USER FORUM section
- include in all manpages BUGS, DOCUMENTAION and USER FORUM
section from apsfilter(1) manpage, to guide people more
to "do the right thing(tm)".
- doc/Makefile is missing a RM define
- on a make clean we shouldn't remove handbook.html since
we have handbook.html under CVS control and distribute it
with the apsfilter sources. And we need it for toplevel
Makefile's "install:" target !
Sa 29 Dez 2001 19:43:21 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* HOWTO-BUGREPORTS: revamped, since apsfilter-bug is available now.
Will keep it under configure control, maybe wee need it later and
now it saves a repository copy.

- ANNOUNCE: update to 7.0.1, document changes
- SETUP:
- additional sanity checks for
- character special print device
- PRINTER, INTERFACE, PAPER variable (has to be set)
- support for new hpijs driver 1.0 and old hpijs driver
- PRINTER, PAPER, INTERFACE, DEVICE are left blank now,
user HAS TO choose proper settings. Everything other
seems error prone.
- bin/apsfilter:
- support for new hpijs 1.0
- remove "set -x for debugging", "aps2file -D" is now
"the right thing(tm)", when debugging apsfilter.

Sa 17 Nov 2001 15:26:21 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
* merge in changes from his experimental version of Nov 9th 2001
(http://y42.briefcase.yahoo.com/losse)
* lots of changes, new driver design etc:
* ->>> tagged old -current with PRE_DRIVER_SCRIPTS
* Doesn't support gs5.x anymore, you NEED at least ghostscript 6.x !!!
This is possible, since gs6.x has been GPL'd, so supporting
old gs 5.x is not necessary anymore...
- each printer driver is now configured with (hopefully) correct
options via shell scripts (see driver/ directory)
- command line options have been unified, no driver-specific
stuff anymore; see doc/handbook.html for details
- command line options are now case sensitive (this will allow future
watermark specifications and other special things to use mixed-case
strings)
- cleaner SETUP: GS_RESOL, BPP have been replaced by RESOLUTION
and COLOR; QUALITY and METHOD are new
- PostScript printer devices are now called "PS" and "PSgs"
resolution is set separately
- "raw" printer queues are now installed manually
(this helps future printer admin tools -- one APS block in printcap
will only contain exactly one printer queue)
- "unspec" devices of hpdj and pcl3 are now called "hpdj/unspec" and
"pcl3/unspec" resp. (instead of just "hpdj" and "pcl3")
- PPA_OPTS is gone; this is now a special case of the more general
POST_FILTER and POST_FILTER_OPTS mechanism
- you need at least ghostscript 6.51 (GNU), 7.00 (AFPL) or higher
- "aps2file" script to allow printing directly to a file
- ghostscript 7.00 support
- full support for gimp-print/stp, omni, hpijs, pips
- support for many more third-party drivers (gs add-ons or via
additional filters)
- HARDWARE_COPIES variable (set this if your driver can print
multiple copies by itself)
- option settings can be restricted by the administrator
(-> "/usr/local/etc/apsfilter/restrictions" for all printers,
"/usr/local/etc/apsfilter/QUEUE/restrictions" for just one queue)
- htmldoc is another html->ps converter (which we right now prefer
over html2ps)
- new papersize: tabloid (which is the same as 11x17; now we clearly
state that "ledger" is 17x11 in SETUP)
- print summaries of AR, RPM, TAR, CPIO, CAB and ZIP files
- support for X window dumps and Windows Metafiles
- non-printer devices (e.g. image creation or PDF distiller) for
print-to-file mode
- awk executable path can be adjusted (useful for Solaris people)
- /etc/printcap gets a verbose comment for each printer (this will
be displayed in any "lpq" listing)
- SETUP provides some defaults to prevent incomplete configuration
- error messages are also sent to the user now (via Cc:)
- unknown command line options cause a message to appear in the log
- sk2ps can convert FIG drawings to PostScript
- Omni update
- fix ANNOUNCE: get help from majordomo via "help" keyword in the
_Body_ of the mail (NOT subject line).
Do 4 Okt 2001 08:25:21 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* From: "Jose M. Alcaide" <jose@we.lc.ehu.es>
pcl3 and hpdj driver have different commandline options
for selecting color model.
Fix: hpdj and pcl driver now get separate case structures
with suitable commandline options, i.e.:
hpdj: GS_FEATURES="$GS_FEATURES -sColourMode=CMYK" ;;
pcl3: GS_FEATURES="$GS_FEATURES -sColourModel=CMYK" ;;
Sa 15 Sep 2001 13:17:01 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* hpijs support:
SETUP:
- gs -h only prints hpijs, not all the models, so the
hpijs printer selection function had to be modified.
- Additionally printing of test page needed modofication.
apsfilter:
- fix of hpijs support needed modifications at different
places in the source.
- added -C option debug, so that you can enable set -x
on the commandline. Although this doesn't enable
debugging at a very early stage it should be
sufficient for certain situations where you
only want to see some stuff + how gs has been called.
- because of debug options, check printer independend
options first
Makefile:
- install new setup profiles in FreeBSD for gs 7.0
and hpijs printer models
So 1 Jul 2001 10:49:06 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Added a FAQ entry, ASCII print problems because of
`out of date' a2ps version
So 15 Apr 2001 12:13:32 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- update for ghostscript 7.00
(-> setup/printer-7.00, setup/devices-7.00)
- support for HP's official "hpijs" drivers
(-> setup/printer-hpijs); right now they appear in
setup/printer-7.00 as well, since gs7.00 includes them
- _again_ new duplex key generation routine (in a
silly attempt to make it portable); uses awk's rand()
- customizable AWK executable (mostly for Solaris,
which has a default awk not suitable for apsfilter)
- expressive /etc/printcap comment for each printer
- setting the hpdj/pcl3 printer model on the command line
isn't really useful (who changes printers dynamically?)
- defaults for some SETUP variables
- handbook updates to reflect these changes
- "SUN rasterfile" entries in printer databases were rather
useless
- minor code cleanups
Maybe someone with an HP printer is willing to test the hpijs drivers
(see http://hpinkjet.sourceforge.net/ or the gs7.00 release).

So 1 Apr 2001 13:36:04 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- fix for duplex printing on FreeBSD, we need to use hexdump
+ od -A n -t x -N 8 /dev/urandom
od: illegal option -- A
od: od(1) has been deprecated for hexdump(1)
special quoting necessary for Linux using the hexdump command
* Andreas
bin/apsfilter: set -x is new default for apsfilter-current
this is a developer release. I'm getting sick of commenting
it out every time when I check new code ;-)
Do 29 Mr 2001 21:31:40 CEST
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>:
- The duplex password generation routine and the reading from
the fifo don't happen to behave correctly in all cases,
mostly due to possible space/tab characters in the key.
This fix just strips all non-alphanumerical characters from
the password, just to be sure.
Di 20 Mr 2001 15:50:26 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* minor fix: HOWTO-BUGREPORT, release = 7.x
* install README.BSD for FreeBSD ports collection
Di 20 Mr 2001 00:37:00 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* wrote ANNOUNCE file
* remove TROUBLESHOOTING file, see handbook now
* FAQ, reference to handbook
* Merge from Stable, trim DONATIONS, add reference to webserver
* update INSTALL file
* move comments about patching lpd for CLASS support to a
separate file README.BSD
So 18 Mr 2001 18:30:51 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* update manual pages in nroff format.
Di 13 Mr 2001 18:36:10 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>:
- TEXINPUTS was exported in the wrong context;
it also gets extended by "$HOME:/tmp:/var/tmp"
to help users provide the embedded files
- PRINT_DVI gets its input from a seekable file
- PRINT_DVI was documented as DVI->PS, but is
actually DVI->PrinterLanguage
- some "eval vs. whitespace" fixes
- add warning if duplex fifo couldn't be created
- convert had some problems with reading from
pipes (at least with bmp and sgi files)
- nconvert couldn't read ilbm files from a pipe
Do 8 Mr 2001 04:33:39 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>:
- TMPDIR fix: apsfilterrc entry was ignored
- html2ps fixes:
- ghostscript needed for DSC output (issue a warning if gs
can't be found)
- honor LANDSCAPE and PAPERSIZE settings
- omni update: -sproperties='...' used for parameters
- setup/printer-stp update
- handbook updates
Sa 3 Mr 2001 11:52:25 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apfilter.org>
* Michael Graywane <graywane@home.com>:
typo/bugfix: correct bj200 driver name in printer-5.50 file
Do 1 Mr 2001 06:49:12 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
SETUP:
* samba passwords with ' characters are used correctly now
(a password a'b'c was saved as SMB_PASSWD='a'b'c' which was
read as abc ; now it becomes SMB_PASSWD='a'\''b'\''c' )
* spool dir owner/group is correctly recognized in most cases,
so use "yes" as a default answer
bin/apsfilter:
* more papersize hints for various filters:
pnmtops, tiff2ps, pdftops, pdf2ps
some need sizes in points, some need inches
* nconvert can't read fits images from a pipe (for whatever reason),
so we need a temp file (-> fitstopnm is preferred now)
doc/handbook.html:
* no output from the printer can be caused by (unwanted use of)
a default "lp" printcap entry or speaking to the wrong printer queue
Mo 26 Feb 2001 10:14:30 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Bugfix: tmpdir didn't get set properly because we need
:= not :- in this case.
So 25 Feb 2001 17:04:20 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Lars Kller <Lars.Koeller@uni-bielefeld.de>
Add -size ${PAPERSIZE} to acroread options for better
A4 printing (and probably printing of other formats)
So 25 Feb 2001 13:16:48 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Joerg Wunsch
- apsfilterrc file: add another sample A2PS_BASIC entry
#A2PS_BASIC='-Eplain'
prevents a2ps for example to preformat troff documents
So 18 Feb 2001 21:26:54 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- replaced "psset" from the a2ps package with
an inline function 'ps_set_tumble()'
- PS_EXIT will be parsed by gs after the data
- PS_INIT was not whitespace safe
- true random duplex passwords (if available)
- duplex notification uses USER@HOST
- new filters: g32pbm, tiff2ps
- cleanup of TEMP and TMPDIR usage
- Omni drivers use PRINT_MODE_1_ANY for b/w
- handbook.html fixes and updates
- printer-omni: added Epson Stylus Photo 1270
- some case pattern fixes
Do 1 Feb 2001 22:57:15 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- convert has some problems with file magic (most notably Targa
files), so now there's an additional command line option which
sets the image format the hard way (to be on the safe side,
all image formats got that)
- PC bitmap files were not recognized correctly
- match patterns for compressed file types were too greedy
- bonus for no extra cost: 3 new printer models for the Omni driver
collection
Do 25 Jan 2001 19:45:27 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- handbook got some more links and a decent coverage
of the error messages created by apsfilter
(plus some minor stuff), and the gimp-print driver knows
more printer models.
Di 23 Jan 2001 08:24:42 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- take first draft of apsfilter handbook under CVS control
Mo 22 Jan 2001 21:09:14 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- setup/printer-addon was split into several files
(basically one for each driver type): now we have
cdj, hpdj, omni, pcl3, ppa, ps, stp
- the driver type next to the printer model is useless now
- changes to the driver selection menu
- listing of ghostscript devices also shows version number
- pcl3 fully integrated (compatibility to hpdj assumed)
- color depth menu was a bit large for 25 line screens
- slight changes to the papersize menu
- apsfilter copy machine is actually implemented
- changes to variable handling ("parallel" vs. "sequential"
setting)
- RAS2PS_OPTS removed
- "(STDIN)" for LPRng recognized
- checking the ghostscript version with class options was
basically useless (SETUP already checks it, and the
options are known to all current versions anyway)
- bug fix: "pswrite" vs. "psgray" usage was reversed
So 21 Jan 2001 11:02:47 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
* checked out before his patch: ml-20010112.patch
* applyed reworked patch: ml-20010117.patch
- apsfilter can print multiple copies of the same
document, independent of the spooler -- it only has to
pre-process the input once (including gs rendering),
then sends the raw data multiple times, and it even
work correctly in "fake" duplex mode
[use "lpr -C copies=42 file.txt" for 42 copies --
the default maximum copy count is 10, however]
- IBM Omni update -- 30 additional Canon models
- LPRng uses "(STDIN)" as the job title (again) --
now check for "stdin", "(stdin)" and "(STDIN)"
- PSgs_* devices use "pswrite" and "psgray" drivers
- a2ps needed some help with file types -- now heavy
markup is the default (via A2PS_BASIC)
- new filters: ilbmtoppm, jpegtopnm, mgrtopbm, rletopnm
- recode always uses "-q"
- unneeded options to djpeg and ras2ps have been removed
- TMPDIR clean-up in SETUP
- gs >= 6.60 use 6.50 as the feature base
- SETUP pretty-prints gs devices
- Linux USB device paths shown during SETUP
Di 9 Jan 2001 13:41:14 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Ian Heggie <ianh@microskil.com.au>
- fix samba remote printing bug.
Export password using PASSWD (not PASSWORD) variable
as of samba 2.0.7 (man smbclient...)
Di 9 Jan 2001 13:20:52 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin
- SETUP: allows user enter an apsfilter ETC_DIR of his choice
Please Note: this is still in discussion and will probably
be replaced in the near future by a configure script
- bin/apsfilter:
- in traps use signal *number*
- set umask 077 for apsfilter script (we are already
secure, because the tmp directory for a print job
is secure. But but now we are even more secure by
setting this file creation mask for every tmp file in
the already secure tmpdir.
- changes concerning etcdir ($CONF_DIR, $QUEUE)
- make functions better readable and quoting easier
old: functions are given the command arguments which
will generate their input.
new: These now all take their input from stdin (again);
the previous approach (to provide commands as
parameters that generate the proper input) would
only save two (at most three) trivial cat commands,
but it was very picky w.r.t quoting -- and also a
pain to read and debug.
So 7 Jan 2001 16:48:50 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* new developement version 7
- ANNOUNCE: trim file, so that new features can be
documented but keep keep things that are still valid
(support, mailinglists)
- HOWTO-BUGREPORTS: change version strings
- INSTALL: trim file, there is currently no FreeBSD port
of apsfilter developement snapshot available.
- KNOWN_BUGS: remove version string so that we don't need
to update it on release changes, currently none
- LICENSE: update copyright, add year 2001
- SETUP: update version to 7.0 devel, change copyright (year 2001)
- bin/apsfilter: update version string and add year 2001 to copyright
Fr 22 Dez 2000 18:26:04 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>

otherwise file doesn't detect all filetype right as binary.
Sa 9 Dez 2000 17:20:24 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* support for printing MS Windows applications of type
'ms windows coff unknown cpu' on standard printer lp
(no need for an additional raw queue for the same physical printer)
So 26 Nov 2000 16:08:53 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- support for cdj970 3rd party driver from www.harsch.net
and hardware duplex support in apsfilter for HP DeskJet 970
Currently SETUP doesn't make an HARDWARE_DUPLEX=set entry
in /etc/apsfilter/.../apsfilterrc
You should set it manually until this minor issue is resolved.
Sa 11 Nov 2000 08:39:10 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* quick commit before holidays
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- support for IBM omni driver
- updates for gimp-print/stp
- support for pswrite devices, which are devices, that
add an additional rendering stage:
input -> conversion to PS -> gs -sDEVICE=pswrite ... -> printer
to enable PS printer to recognize non-standard PS fonts, that
are not embedded in the PS file. Same for images.
For example: Sketch can be configured to use Type1 fonts.
these are referenced by name in the *.sk file and
(after conversion with sk2ps) also in the PS file.
These devices are now named PSgs_XXXdpi or PSgs_XXXXdpi
Mo 11 Sep 2000 08:41:18 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>:
- add support for the stp driver from gimp-print
- add support for the pnm2ppa tool
setup/printer-6.01 has been split into several files
for real PostScript printers, add-on drivers for gs
and PPA-printers, so people get better overview of
printer types and drivers this way.
* Andreas:
- update setup/README
- remove not used printerdb
Sa 9 Sep 2000 17:41:31 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* SETUP: bugfix: cleanup after removal of GLABAL.sh:
TMP was undefined, so testpages have been created
in "/" instead of "/tmp"
Sa 9 Sep 2000 11:10:51 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>

Sa 9 Sep 2000 09:51:55 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Andreas Reuter <ar205@bonzo.geowiss.nat.tu-bs.de>
watermark.ps is very simple and makes some assumptions
that can easily be broken by postscript documents.
Created watermark routine with whole calculation code,
maybe this fixes up some of the oddities.
Sa 9 Sep 2000 09:03:37 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* based on idea and feedback from: Jeffrey Moskot <jef@math.miami.edu>
SETUP: hint to enter 'raw' as remote queuename when configuring
remote printer with HP Jetdirect network card. The JetDirect card
has two queues on it, 'raw' is the one we may use to print, the
other is for text only.
Fr 8 Sep 2000 15:44:53 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>

* fix a sh syntax bug in SETUP
Do 7 Sep 2000 20:02:12 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>:
* samba password is not used on the command line anymore, but in
the PASSWORD environment variable
* custom printer queue names really work now (the given default
name is "lp" if it isn't used already)
* /etc/apsfilter/$QUEUE/apsfilterrc.$USER is another config file
* new config variable: DISABLE_DUPLEX (needed if apsfilter is not
running on the host the print job was started)

Mo 4 Sep 2000 21:34:06 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* fixes for hpdj printers, special treatment for driver hpdj_u970
* BITSPERPIXEL can't be changed for hpdj
* due to popular demand: ASCII_PPS and ASCII_LANDSCAPE change the
printout just for ASCII files, independent of PS_NUP and LANDSCAPE
(but these provide default values if needed)
* BINDING now uses "short" and "long" instead of psset-switches
* fixed printing on PS-printers and during debugging
Sa 2 Sep 2000 18:53:41 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* replace list of apsfilter contributors with this link:
http://www.apsfilter.org/contrib.html
Sa 2 Sep 2000 12:57:15 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* added working watermark template
from Andreas Reuter <ar205@bonzo.geowiss.nat.tu-bs.de>
this file is the basis to _dynamically_ create backgrounds
for every printed page, i.e.: "internal use only", "Top Secret"
etc. Probably we'll use it this way in the future:
lpr -C wmark="Top Secret" file

Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
--------------------------------
Here are some small changes to the duplex code, more class stuff
and several minor tweaks:
* duplex printing:
- "forced simplex" mode was totally fscked up
(infinite loop _and_ wrong print command)
- use psselect _or_ pstops to extract odd/even pages
- one less temporary file
* new function send_mail for duplex and failure messages
* DVIPS_REVERSE and ACROREAD_REVERSE are gone; PS_UTILS
should be used to correct _all_ file formats
* new class options:
- a3,a4,letter,legal,ledger (paper size)
- a2ps,mpage,recode (ASCII filter)
- 1pps,2pps,4pps,8pps (pages per sheet)
- border,noborder,header,noheader (ASCII style)
- landscape (force orientation for ASCII and DVI)
- simplex (force non-duplex mode)
- color,mono (color handling)
* FAQ update
* slight manpage fixes
* Makefile fixes
* small cosmetic changes here and there
changes from me:
----------------
* SETUP: A -> abort, I -> install a printer, Q finish installation
I think quit is the usual leave operation
* hint for FreeBSD ports collection, not to install manpages
* SETUP, apsfilter: Change my mail address to andreas@apsfilter.org
* SETUP: make more clear how to restart the lineprinter scheduler
* SETUP: install_man_pages:
- document 'default' to not install manpages when simply
hitting RETURN, ie. when installing from FreeBSD ports
collection
- its not clear if FreeBSD user used ports collection or
not, so ask if manual pages should be installed or not
* SETUP: save 2 seconds sleep by combining a message
* FAQ, use the SGML based version
Changes to the FAQ should directly be made to the doc tree !
* TODO: remove resolved items, update some ITEMS and one new.
Sa 26 Aug 2000 18:26:51 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* SETUP: fix permissions of $SPOOLDIR
700 was to restrictive for BSD.
TODO: "clone" permissions of $SPOOL
* SETUP: bugfix: BSD needs /usr/sbin in PATH to find chown.
added /sbin as well, since this is unexpensive and possibly
needed for other systems.
Sa 26 Aug 2000 17:58:33 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* SETUP: cosmetic, reformat menues to still fit within 25 lines
Sa 26 Aug 2000 13:48:40 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* SETUP: fix: grep -c needs an argument (".") in echo "\c" | grep -c .
to work on FreeBSD and possibly other BSDs with GNU grep 2.4
Fr 25 Aug 2000 18:44:38 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* update apsfilter.1 man page concerning duplex printing.
* fix default installation directory, which is now
/usr/local/share.
* nuke GLOBAL.sh entirely
Fr 25 Aug 2000 17:45:21 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
- enable apsfilter to fake a duplex PostScript printer.
What is basically does is:
- extract the even pages from a ps file and print them
- mail a notification to the user to flip the pages and
to echo a "secret" key into a named pipe which is used
for communication
- wait for the key by busy-reading the named pipe
- print the odd pages
This probably only supports remote printing if apsfilter
is running on the local host.
Local printers work (as far as I tested).
Maybe the page order of the odd pages has to be reversed
this can be done with a new config variable if needed.
BTW: use "lpr -C duplex file.ps" to try it
- GLOBAL.sh is gone (apsfilter and SETUP now have everything
"on board")
- apsfilter man page got an update.
Fr 25 Aug 2000 11:07:42 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* SETUP, mention USB ports for BSD ...
Di 22 Aug 2000 17:56:28 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* From Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
use warn_about_missing_gs in SETUP
Di 22 Aug 2000 08:42:01 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* installation destination for FreeBSD ports collection
${PREFIX}/apsfilter -> ${PREFIX}/share/apsfilter
reason: apsfilter libdir can be exported.
NFS clients theoretically could install apsfilter by
simply calling SETUP from the mounted directory.
Mo 21 Aug 2000 19:35:10 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* From Michael Loin <losse@germanymail.com>:
- decent quoting for configuration files
- return codes for LPRng in case of fatal_*() exit (I hope
this doesn't upset BSD-lpr)
- use of local variables
- TEMP directory for gs is now APS_TMPDIR (gs doesn't always
remove its temp files; this is fixed now)
- use of do_pager in SETUP instead of more
- small fixes here and there
Sa 19 Aug 2000 10:47:58 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* clean up Makefile after src subdir has gone
create a new snapshot, since FreeBSD port apsfilter6
had problems with that
Mi 16 Aug 2000 11:49:01 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* make developement version available
Mi 16 Aug 2000 10:36:59 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* From Michael Loin <losse@germanymail.com>
SETUP
- mass installation of printer
- New configuration directory (/etc/apsfilter/...)
- raw-printer optional
- /etc/printcap, cosmetic change
- keep non apsfilter entries in /etc/printcap, even if overwrite
has been selected
- you can skip installation of manpages.
- Tab 4
- minor bugfixes
- misc optimization / fixes.
bin/apsfilter:
- use new config dir /etc/apsfilter
- prefer use of do_convert instead of do_nconvert
- new env var RAW_PROLOGUE and RAW_EPILOGUE substitute
RAW_SETUP and RAW_ADD_FF
- Bugfixes and optimizations
apsfilterrc changes to reflect changes in apsfilter and SETUP
All configuration now in /etc/apsfilter
a) global config for all printer - /etc/apsfilter/apsfilterrc
b) APS_BASEDIR in printcap is gone, new basedir file:
/etc/apsfilter/basedir
c) /etc/apsfilter/apsN contains:
* link apsN-... to ../basedir/bin/apsfilter for :if=...:
* apsfilterrc (optional)
* smbclient.conf (optional)
* pap.conf (optional)
Advantages: everybody has access right for configuration
SPOOLDIR now may get restrictive access rights again !
Wed, 2 Aug 2000 16:54:52 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@apsfilter.org>
* bin/apsfilter:
* More contributions from Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>:
* print_ascii: Must use `a2ps -b...' instead of `a2ps -b=...'.
* print_pcd: pcdtoppm needs `-' as second argument.
* Check for LPRng Z options.
* print_pdf:
* pdftops 0.80 and earlier don't support `-q', so don't force
it.
* acroread always needs to be run with `-toPostScript'.
* Create a temporary input file for acroread because it creates
one in the pipeline mode too, but forgets to remove it.
* print_ps: A simpler default for $GS_FONTPATH and $GS_LIB.
* print_dvi: Simplified the setting of a default resolution.
* Simplified the parsing of the lock file.
* Noted support for WordPerfect graphics and XCF.
Tue, 1 Aug 2000 17:18:29 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@apsfilter.org>
* bin/apsfilter: Simplified the parsing of the lock file.
* SETUP: Fixed a copy/paste oversight.
* Makefile: Removed the obsolete `release' and `webpage' targets.
Mon Jul 31 22:29:17 CEST 2000 Andreas Klemm <andreas@apsfilter.org>
* change make-release to operate on apsfilter.org
Matej and I are now both possible to roll apsfilter releases.
Sun, 30 Jul 2000 15:10:20 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@apsfilter.org>
* SETUP: Determine whether user is super-user by checking the UID
instead of the username.
* bin/apsfilter:
* do_nconvert: Check whether pnmtops is present.
* Better comments.
* print_pdf: Support for pdftops (part of Xpdf).
* ash doesn't do word splitting on WORD from ${PARAMETER:+WORD},
while bash does. Both should be satisfied now.
Sun, 23 Jul 2000 16:30:16 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@apsfilter.org>
* bin/apsfilter:
* find_filter: Use `type' instead of `command -v' because the latter
(although a part of POSIX) isn't supported by the FreeBSD and the
NetBSD version of ash.
* More contributions from Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>:
* Support for FBM, FITS, IFF ILBM, MGR, MIFF, Kodak Photo CD, PNG,
RLE, SGI, Sketch, Targa, WordPerfect graphics, GIMP XCF,
X pixmap.
* print_ascii: Renamed $A2PS_STYLE, $A2PS_BORDER, $A2PS_HEADER to
$ASCII_STYLE, $ASCII_BORDER, $ASCII_HEADER, respectively; now
used both by a2ps and mpage. Added a default for $MPAGE_BASIC.
* Shortened class options handling.
* Process LPRng Z options like class options.
* (By Andreas.) unpack: Run file without -b since the FreeBSD
version doesn't support it.
* Fixed a quoting problem with $A2PS_BASIC, $HTML2PS_OPTS, and
$RECODE_OPTS.
* print_dvi: Always run dvips with `-q -o -'.
* Renamed the convert and the nconvert function to do_convert and
do_nconvert, respectively, to avoid convert and nconvert being
always detected as present by type in find_filter.
* Style and consistency improvements.
* print_ps: Use $PS_INIT for UPP printers too.
* template/apsfilterrc:
* Corrected `PSUTILS' to `PS_UTILS'. Removed a superfluous `|'.
* Corrected a `=' to `!'.
* Commented out default values.
* Moved $NOTIFY from global/GLOBAL.sh to template/apsfilterrc since it
is used only in apsfilter.
* Testing: reverted to shell syntax for configuration files. If you
want user configuration files, you should run apsfilter under a
specialized UID -- see the apsfilterrc template.
Fri, 21 Jul 2000 16:22:18 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@apsfilter.org>
* bin/apsfilter:
* More contributions from Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>:
* Support for convert (part of ImageMagick).
* Support for PGM.
* Support for nconvert (part of XnView).
* Changed indent to 4 spaces for readability; made everything fit in
78 columns for context diff.
Thu, 20 Jul 2000 18:21:20 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@apsfilter.org>
* bin/apsfilter:
* Reworked the option processing.
* Style and consistency improvements.
* More contributions from Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>:
* bin/apsfilter:
* Print raw when given the -c option.
* LPRng provides $SPOOL_DIR.
* print_ps: Check whether gs is installed.
* print_sunraster: Fixed missing evaluation.
* lib/redir_gs_msg.ps: Removed because it doesn't work on gs 6.01.
Tue, 18 Jul 2000 15:48:48 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@debian.org>
* bin/apsfilter:
* Reworked the handling of temporary files -- using a temporary
subdirectory is simpler to implement and more portable.
* More contributions from Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>:
* Run dvips in secure mode (-R).
* Run html2ps in grayscale (-g) when appropriate.
* Run djpeg without `-colors 256'.
* Get $HOMEDIR via tilde expansion when available.
* Fixed a missing bracket.
* Run groff in safer mode (-S).
* Filter presence is now checked at run-time; filtersetup is gone.
Still need to update the documentation...
* Merged from the RELENG_5 branch:
* HP DJ 970C support. hpdj bug fixes.
* PAP support.
* bin/apsfilter:
* Run acroread with -fast; also -reverse when appropriate.
* Discard -dBitPerPixel options for the hpdj driver -- it doesn't
like them.
* Run gs 6.x using -_ instead of - for efficiency.
* Replaced $RAW_SUPPRESS_FF with $RAW_ADD_FF.
* SETUP: Use the suppress formfeed (sf) printcap setting for raw.
* Removed occurences of /etc/apsfilterrc from the documentation.
* New/revised uniprint profiles from
Harold Bower <HalBower@worldnet.att.net>.
Sat, 15 Jul 2000 23:02:10 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@debian.org>

Wed, 10 May 2000 18:16:35 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@debian.org>
* Added preliminary mpage support, as suggested by Michael Lossin
<losse@germanymail.com>.
Sat, 6 May 2000 18:21:27 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@debian.org>
* Implemented the rest of the suggestions from Michael Lossin
<losse@germanymail.com>:
* bin/apsfilter:
* Print recode(1) output using print_raw.
* Look for `*.upp' instead of `uniprint' in print_dvi.
* SETUP:
* Disabled changing the resolution on Uniprint and PostScript
printers.
* Added the uniprint profiles for Epson Stylus Color 640.
Thu, 4 May 2000 22:26:52 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@debian.org>
* bin/apsfilter: Fixed a design flaw in the rewrite -- files were not
unpacked for `lpr -C ascii' -- by separating the auto_print function
to two new functions, unpack and print_auto, and calling them
appropriately.
Wed, 3 May 2000 07:19:53 +0200 Matej Vela <vela@debian.org>
* bin/apsfilter:
* An experimental rewrite.
* Added search for sendmail in several standard places.
* Fixed the control file location determination for lpr.
* Replaced dd with tr because of the size difference on FreeBSD.
* Fixed print_raw to comply with the general calling convention.
* Changed to new recode invocation syntax.
Thanks to Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com> for noting this.
* setup/filtersetup: Added mktemp and pdf2ps to $SUPPORTED_FILTERS.
* TODO: Spelling correction.
Di 2 Mai 2000 01:36:06 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* released apsfilter 5.4.3 as release branch for RELENG_5
* introduce tag RELENG_5 for apsfilter-stable
* HEAD branch is apsfilter-current, which will become
apsfilter 6.x in the future ...
So 30 Apr 2000 16:34:53 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* roll release 5.4.2
So 30 Apr 2000 16:34:53 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Change make-release for better Apsfilter Software Center webpage.
- don't create hypertext links for old apsfilter releases
- but provide patches for updates
* remove note about manually installing manpages on Linux Systems
* update version number in different files as always
* new TODO item: automate update of apsfilter release number
should perhaps go into make-release, since make-release _has_
to be updated manually.
Do 27 Apr 2000 21:19:16 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* APSFILTERRC hasn't been used, so INSECURE didn't have any effect
Mi 26 Apr 2000 06:31:25 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* rolled release 5.4.1
Di 25 Apr 2000 22:43:11 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Update infos (News) in SETUP
Change setup, that internet resources stay on screen as last point
Di 25 Apr 2000 21:59:00 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* come-back of INSECURE variable
reading environment variables from user customizeable apsfilterrc
files is still NOT save and therefore forbidden by default !
You have to set it as administrator in every apsfilterrc file
(in every printers spooldir)
Reading variables using awk was a major improvement over sourcing
the apsfilter files (executing them as script),
but these two problems remain:
- ENVVAR="evil_script", eval $ENVVAR
- ENVVAR="`evil_script`"
apsfilter security fix is:
if [ -n "$INSECURE" ]; then
APSFILTERRC="$SPOOL_DIR/apsfilterrc \
$HOME_DIR/.apsfilter/apsfilterrc.${LABEL}"
else
APSFILTERRC="$SPOOL_DIR/apsfilterrc"
fi
Di 25 Apr 2000 20:41:10 CEST

developer team.
Mo 24 Apr 2000 15:41:15 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* TMP has to be declared before using ID for debugging permissions
Mo 24 Apr 2000 14:04:56 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* apsfilter:
- style put '"' around variable names in apsfilter
- style use tabs instead of spaces in CLASS section
* additions to Matej's hpdj support
- set HPDJ_MODEL before CLASS features
- if driver is only called hpdj in list of supported printers
then set HPDJ_MODEL to unspec, which causes the HPDJ driver
to produce code for newer DeskJets
- user is permitted to choose another HPDJ printer model
via CLASS support (lpr -C)
- added many hpdj driver options, available via CLASS support
(lpr -C)
Mo 24 Apr 2000 12:00:04 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* filtersetup: after making use of mktemp to create a workfile
filters_found file has been created with unsufficient read
permissions (0600) for apsfilter script
* update version number in test.ps
Mo 24 Apr 2000 10:48:35 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Patches from Debian Project
Big thanks to Matej Vela <vela@debian.org>
especially for his patience ;-)
- code improvements SETUP, GLOBAL.sh
- do_pager function
- do_view_perflog and gs -h uses new do_pager function
- better newline on echo detection (without tmp file)
- bugfixes
- GLOBAL.sh:
- missing #!/bin/sh
- SETUP:
- no testpage in serial setup
- Startbits unimplemented
- support for Martin Lottermoser's hpdj driver
got patches for apsfilter 5.1.4, changed it to fit in 5.4.x
- apsfilter -> a2ps: LPRng uses `(STDIN)' for jobs
coming from stdin, strip this as well from header
- "spalling" errors ;-)
So 23 Apr 2000 19:45:05 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* SETUP, apsfilter:
reduce the amount of printcap entries to 2
ascii printer can vanish
if you want to treat file as ASCII file, then use CLASS option:
lpr -C ascii
So 23 Apr 2000 19:12:42 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* use acroread4 or acroread for printing pdf files, it
produces better PS code
don't pipe through acroread since it leaves a tmp file in tmpdir
add acroread4 and acroread to filtersetup
From: Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
So 23 Apr 2000 19:06:20 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* apsfilter -> print_dvi
use 360x360dpi when printing DVI files using uniprint driver
So 23 Apr 2000 19:02:30 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* apsfilter: Use additionally to GS_FONTPATH GS_LIB
then additional Fontmap files are also read in
From: Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
So 23 Apr 2000 18:53:00 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* apsfilter + SETUP:
gs: use -_ instead of - when reading from pipe
Use.html: The difference between "-" and "-_" is that
"-" reads the input one character at a time, which is useful
for programs such as GSview that generate input for Ghostscript
dynamically and watch for some response, whereas "-_" reads the
input in blocks, which is more efficient for ordinary (batch)
execution.
obtained from: Michael Lossin <losse@germanymail.com>
So 23 Apr 2000 18:44:56 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* add -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER when printing with uniprint driver
although all upp driver (gs 6.01) already contain this.
To be sure...

Fr 21 Apr 2000 21:52:47 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Clean import of patch submission from
Bjorn Hansson <Bjorn.Hansson@signal.uu.se>
SETUP:
- Print as Windows GUEST user, yes/no fix
- fix print test page on samba printer
apsfilter:
- Printing to a remote printer through apsfilter results in an empty
SPOOL_DIR. This should either be considered a misconfiguration of
apsfilter (easiest) or be handled (on my RedHat system the working
directory is the spool directory).
- Printing files other than PostScript cannot be redirected to a Samba
printer (or remote). Also, choosing PRINT_TO_FILE for a Samba or
remote printer still results in data sent to Samba printer.
- Printing to Samba printer did not work if ip no. and/or workgroup
were absent.
- Print redirection missing for non PS print_xxxx() functions.
- Raw printing to a HP printer does not reset printer.
- Some eval:s missing (or am I completely wrong here) in front of
$PRINT_PS string, see print_html and print_sunraster.
- If no ip no. and/or workgroup were given, the test page couldn't be
printed on a samba printer.
- patch that makes it possible to choose remote printers in the same
way Samba printers are chosen, i.e. through a .conf file in the spool
directory. It uses the file lpr.conf
Fr 21 Apr 2000 21:01:00 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* INSTALL:
- Add note to read platform specific installation notes,
i.e. doc/README.TurboLinux
- comments on different print resolution when using uniprint driver
from: Harold Bower <HalBower@worldnet.att.net>
Fr 21 Apr 2000 19:42:00 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* uniprint driver profile finetuning
by Harold Bower <HalBower@worldnet.att.net>
medium definition driver (lqx70cm.upp) changed to unidirectional
print to reduce alignment problems. It is only slightly slower,
but produces much nicer print.
Fr 21 Apr 2000 19:42:00 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* make-release
use local CVS repo for diffing as well
Fr 21 Apr 2000 19:37:00 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* make-release
Before making a release, mirror apsfilter remote cvs repository
first. Then use the just mirrored apsfilter repository for rolling
apsfilter releases (more speed, less costs, more consistency).
Fr 21 Apr 2000 19:30:47 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>

So 12 Mr 2000 09:19:49 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* when sending to "request-snailmail", mention apsfilter release in use
So 12 Mr 2000 09:19:49 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Forgot to mention:
Released apsfilter 5.2.0
Sa 11 Mr 2000 17:54:30 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* SETUP + apsfilter
allow windows (samba) remote printing as
- GUEST user
- real user and (optionally) password
* SETUP: allow printing of testpage on local, local Postscript
and windows remote printer (via smbclient -> SAMBA)
* Change version to 520
* update INSTALL and ANNOUNCE file
Mi 8 Mr 2000 20:02:58 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* write GS_RESOL only to apsfilterrc file, if
resolution = default has been chosen.
This is because the x-res/y-res in the symlink name
(if=....) has now precedence over everything.
Only if you choose default, then you can use GS_RESOL
to customize print resolution
Di 7 Mr 2000 22:27:26 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* SETUP fixes, you can now toggle back to gs default resolution
* SETUP: when overwriting printcap it will be nuked entirely
* SETUP: when adding entries to printcap old entries won't be
commented out
* complete revamp of print resolution.
* Now you can create different printer with different resolution
* if you choose default print resolution, then you are allowed
to overwrite print resolution in apsfilterrc with GS_RESOL
value
Di 7 Mr 2000 21:15:38 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* SETUP creates symlinks with print resolution or "default"
* If you need two different print resolutions, simply create
2 printers with SETUP.
Di 7 Mr 2000 19:39:34 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* reduce the amount of printer entries per printer
I think it's matter of the application to do color or b&w printing
So we have now 3 printcap entries per printer
* Introduce apsfilterrc variable color, to make it possible
to choose "mono" if needed
Di 7 Mr 2000 17:20:01 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* SETUP / Global.sh / apsfilter / make-release : prepare for 5.2.0
* bugfix GS_FONTPATH hasn't been set because of wrong test (-f -> -d)
Di 7 Mr 2000 13:50:37 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* revamp control over a2ps operation and look&feel
either configure
- A2PS_OPTS
- or a combination of
A2PS_BASIC A2PS_STYLE A2PS_BORDER A2PS_HEADER
A2PS_OPTS = overwrites complete a2ps command line,
only exception: apsfilter auto file type recognition
adds a file type parameter
A2PS_BASIC = basic options
A2PS_STYLE = how many pages per sheet, portrait or landscape
A2PS_HEADER = want a page header
A2PS_BORDER = want a border around pages
A2PS_PAPERSIZE = want to use an own customized a2ps printertype
which has been defined in /usr/local/etc/a2ps.cfg
Di 7 Mr 2000 13:03:33 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* fixes in SETUP because of new config variables
* fix in SETUP under "News", /etc/apsfilter.$PRINTER
* fix in SETUP, because no INSECURE FLAG anymore
* fix in SETUP, concerning old Design informations
Di 7 Mr 2000 12:19:03 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* more security for apsfilter
apsfilterrc files aren't sourced anymore
instead of this config variables are grabbed via awk
So -> got rid of INSECURE FLAG !!!
* some environment variables have changed because of length and style
OLD NEW
----------------------------------------------------------
PRINT_RAW_SETUP_PRINTER RAW_SETUP
PRINT_RAW_SUPPRESS_FORMFEED RAW_SUPPRESS_FF
FEATURE A2PS_FEATURES
DVIPS_RESOL_DorP DVIPS_RES_DorP
USE_RECODE_NOT_A2PS USE_RECODE
PAGES_REVERSE_ORDER DVIPS_REVERSE
* apsfilterrc files have different format defining above variables
field separator is "!" (because all other possible good signs are
already used by command options), i.e.:
A2PS_FEATURES!1n!
Please use the 2nd "=", so that only "1n" will be fetched and
nothing more from the rest of the line which might be a comment.
note: the file itself looks like shell syntax, but won't be sourced !
* changed the field separator of smbclient.conf file from ':' to '!'
so that this is unique within apsfilter
SETUP and apsfilter script are affected
* modified apsfilterrc template file to reflect new file format
(field separator '!')
* modified SETUP to write some defaults in that format.
Mo 6 Mr 2000 23:58:36 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* fix samba remote printing, -c 'print -' was missing...
Mo 6 Mr 2000 21:31:17 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Extended samba support
SAMBA printer is automatically recognized if there is a
smbclient.conf file in the printers spool directory
Following format:
SMB_SERVER:SALOME: # NetBIOS name, i.e.: "NT40SRV"
SMB_PRINTER:EPSON: # service (printer) name, i.e.: "EPSON"
SMB_IP:172.16.1.2: # IP Address of NetBIOS server
SMB_WORKGROUP:KLEMM: # Workgroup Name
SMB_BUFFER:1200: # finetune send buffer size (def. 65520)
SMB_FLAGS:-N: # suppress password prompt
The environment variable SAMBA_PRINTER is unnecessary now
* Added Samba Printer support in SETUP
* trim sleeps a bit in SETUP
Mo 6 Mr 2000 19:13:12 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* when testing and setting PRINT_TO_FILE
if you want trash:
KEEP_PRINTOUT="YES" # set to keep $TMP_PRINTOUT
if you want to postprocess tmp printout with gs
POSTPROCESS_PRINTOUT="YES" # set to pipe it through PRINT_PS
* style: "! -z" -> "-n" in string tests
* GLOBAL.sh: add /home/local/bin as local path
Mo 6 Mr 2000 13:35:12 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* some style fixes from Debian concerning tmp file handling
in apsfilter. Declare tmp variables at the beginning of
apsfilter.
* introduce TMP variable, might be set to /var/tmp,
if root- or memory filesystem too small
* document PRINT_REMOTE a little bit more verbose
* Fix e-mail address in README, to get postal address
Do 2 Mr 2000 17:30:14 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* released apsfilter 5.1.5
Do 2 Mr 2000 17:13:24 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* SETUP: added support for configuring remote printer
Beware: you still have to make sure, that your line printer
scheduler supports input filter processing with remote printers
as it is the case for FreeBSD 3.x and later with a "fixed" lpd
as well as for Unix systems with LPRng installed as lineprinter
scheduler, which is the case for some (not all !!!) Linux Systems.
* updated HOWTO-BUGREPORT, former name APS-BUGFORM, moved it to toplevel
* updated TROUBLESHOOTING
Do 2 Mr 2000 16:38:25 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Added menue entries in SETUP for the contributed uniprint
driver settings for Epson Stylus Color 740
stc740ih.upp : Epson Stylus Color 740, 1440x720DpI, Inkjet Paper
stc740p.upp : Epson Stylus Color 740, 720x720DpI, Plain Paper
stc740pl.upp : Epson Stylus Color 740, 360x360DpI, Plain Paper
Do 2 Mr 2000 14:26:45 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Bugfix for installing multiple printer of different flavor
Old behaviour: SETUP creats an /etc/apsfilterrc file for
1st printer. When installing 2nd printer - which differs in
gs-driver - then /etc/apsfilterrc file gets overwritten
and the settings at the end of apsfilterrc file are lost.
Even worse, your 1st printer which might be a color printer
might be confused by the B&W settings of the 2nd printer.
FIX: /etc/apsfilterrc (global settings, created only by
system administrator, not SETUP script)
SETUP now installs only
/etc/apsfilterrc.PRINTER config file
* changes in SETUP and apsfilter to get rid of UP_PROFILE
variable. apsfilter script now is capable of detecting
uniprint driver by scanning the name of the printer:
case $PRINTER in
*.upp) PRINT_PS="gs command with uniprint syntax";;
*) PRINT_PS="gs command with normal syntax";;
esac
Di 29 Feb 2000 10:34:43 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>

using a2ps. make clear to use a2ps-letter.
So 2 Jan 2000 18:16:14 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Default for A2PS_OPTS still wrong ... did it right now
Got a wrong submission from a user and I didn't test it
thoroughly in the past
-X iso1 --portrait --no-header --borders=no -1
So 2 Jan 2000 16:49:46 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* "Francois D. Menard" <fmenard@g6-114b.residence.usherb.ca>

* Eran Guendelman <eguendel@uwaterloo.ca>
make more clear in SETUP, that you need to set PAPERTYPE
in order to print the test page and properly setup the printer
also changed order of menue entries.
So 2 Jan 2000 15:48:16 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* rodney simioni <rodneysimioni@yahoo.com>
SETUP and setup/filtersetup doesn't run under Solaris 7
/bin/sh doesn't grok [ -z $var ], have to use
[ -z "$var" ] like in apsfilter script
* make-release changes, so that only _missing_ apsfilter
release tar archives are re-created to prevent frequent
md5 checksum changes...
So 28 Nov 1999 11:06:36 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Update FAQ, how to get rid of the borders when printing
ASCII documents.
* Change apsfilterrc, to state out, that A2PS_OPTS is the
now recommended way to configure a2ps text formatting
* Be more verbose about difference of legacy config option
FEATURE and the A2PS_OPTS config variable, wich overwrites
a2ps printing options completely.
* Feature request by John Culleton <john@ccpl.carr.org>:
Changed default to print portrait without border, since
many people seem to want this as (better) default.
So 21 Nov 1999 10:09:11 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Update FAQ, how to adjust page margins
Sa 13 Nov 1999 15:26:30 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>

sample how to implement this
So 29 Aug 1999 17:06:47 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Improve functionality of make-release script
Automate as much as possible !!!
Sa 28 Aug 1999 08:54:28 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* released apsfilter 5.1.3
* more secure temproary files, this nice idea was from
Lars Kller. Now we have a umask of 077.
* Better guidance to uniprint drivers, it was previously
a little bit hidden.
* SETUP many display enhancements to make the setup script
more informative for the user.
* change destination (download directory) in make-release script
after homepage directory redesign.
Mo 19 Jul 1999 00:38:19 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* apsfilterrc: added nice a2ps options from Lars Kller
* SATISFIED_CUSTOMERS file

Do 3 Jun 1999 13:56:58 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* SETUP: print time to compute testpage and time to print testpage
* SETUP: pipe these times with tee into logfile, to help to decide
later, which driver to choose...
* when selecting uniprint, don't show uniprint in SETUP menue, instead
display selected uniprint driver settings...
* apsfilter: missing PAPERSIZE in PRINT_PS command for uniprint
* SETUP: missing PAPERSIZE in PRINT_PS command for uniprint
* Andreas Reuter <ar205@bonzo.geowiss.nat.tu-bs.de>
contributed a PS file (redir_gs_msg.ps) to redirect Postscript
error messages; added lib directory to include such PS cmd files
Patch PRINT_PS to include this libdir in searchpath for ps files.
Mi 26 Mai 1999 22:36:19 CEST
* "David G. Andersen" <danderse@cs.utah.edu>
Add hint in INSTALL file, how to patch FreeBSD's
usr.sbin/lpr/chkprintcap/chkprintcap.c, to allow
sharing of a spooldir by several printers in /etc/printcap.
Needed for lpr -P{low,medium,high}
Di 25 Mai 1999 22:16:25 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* make use of psutils package to print 2 pages on one
added this to PRINT_PS variable
to enable this you only have to set PSUTILS in
one of the apsfilterrc files
Then two pages on one is not only limited to print_ascii
Mo 24 Mai 1999 11:44:08 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* release apsfilter 5.11
* fix resolution calculation, don't simply default to 300dpi
if user only want's to use gs-driver default resolution.
This leads to the necessary change to move code concerning
dvips resolution calculation into print_dvips routine.
* enhance apsfilter bugform
* move entry of rogue printers into other case struct
* cosmetic changes, move copyright more in front...
So 23 Mai 1999 13:00:59 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* release apsfilter 5.10
* changes for FreeBSD ports collection:
don't call SETUP automatically on "make install"
so isn't interactive anymore, so IS_INTERACTIVE has gone and
apsfilter will reside on the next FreeBSD CD-ROM...
* remove all occurrences of BETA version ....
* add env variable for dvips PAGES_REVERSE_ORDER to force adding
-r switch, apsfilterrc updated as well
* revamped the code to detect print resolution, now we have
the following variables and priorities (a) is highest prio)
RESOLUTION is used for ghostscript commandline
(for setting GS_CMD_RESOL)
XRES is used for setting resolution on dvips commandline
a) if resolution is part of filter script name
DPI=XXXxYYY
-> RESOLUTION=$DPI
-> XRES=XXX, YRES=YYY
b) if DPI is not set and
if GS_RESOL has been set by the user (XXXxYYY)
-> RESOLUTION=$GS_RESOL
-> XRES=XXX, YRES=YYY
c) if DPI and GS_RESOL have not been set
and we have a PS printer PS_xxx, then set:
-> RESOLUTION=XXXxYYY
-> XRES=XXX, YRES=YYY
d) default to 300dpi, to be able to set resolution
for dvips commandline, gs uses the default resolution
of the printer driver...
-> RESOLUTION=""
-> XRES=300, YRES=300
* add installation instructions to INSTALL, how to manually
configure apsfilter, to use different print resolutions, to
get the following functionality:
lpr -Plow test.ps (print in 180dpi)
lpr -Pmed test.ps (print in 360dpi)
lpr -Phigh test.ps (print in 720dpi)
Sa 15 Mai 1999 11:36:47 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>

Andreas Reuter <ar205@bonzo.geowiss.nat.tu-bs.de>
tiger.ps is gone ;-)
* save UP_PROFILE variable in SETUP.cfg as well
* Get some enhancements from SuSE version of apsfilter (v 1.6)
with some modifications
- CRLF translation and perforation skip for more HP models
- printer type dependend apsfilter setup files with the
following precedence:
/etc/apsfilterrc
/etc/apsfilterrc.${PRINTER}
$HOME/.apsfilterrc
$HOME/.apsfilterrc.${PRINTER}
- new GS_FONTPATH environment variable to make use of
additional fonts, i.e.: X11R6's type1 fonts
a) can be set in apsfilterrc files
b) if not set it defaults to
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 or
/var/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1
- default printer resolution now also defineable
in apsfilter filter script name
please note, apsfilterrc file settings GS_RESOL
have precedence over the new configuration scheme
- new user settable environment variable USE_RECODE_NOT_A2PS
use recode instead of a2ps to print ascii files, so:
- print_ascii has been renamed to print_ascii_a2ps
- new shell function print_ascii_recode has been introduced
- new environment variable RECODE_OPTS
defaults to "-q latin1:ibmpc"
overwriteable by the apsfilterrc files
- new supported filetypes
- bmp
- FAX G3
- troff
* some dvips settings cleanup, use -Z only when resol >= 400dpi
* cosmetic, sort order of shell functions for printing and
"case" structure by file type
* when printing html use some sane defaults for HTML2PS_OPTS
if not set in apsfilterrc files
Mo 1 Mr 1999 16:41:21 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* RELEASED apsfilter 5.0.1
* file command now doesn't need to read from stdin, I forgot this
in 5.0.0, now file works directly on the tmp file. Had to remove
one "shift" to make this work properly.
* Added this to the contrib section
From: Skliarouk Peter <penn@usa.net>
Wrote filter for russian fonts for matrix 9-pin printers.
It uses only ESC-consequences to transform chars to theirs
graphics representations.
Do 18 Feb 1999 22:13:29 CET Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
RELEASED apsfilter 5.0.0

* fix bug in SETUP script, when having a color printer,
create the necessary printcap entries and spooldirs
* set the default printer "lp" to the auto-color printer
if you have a color printer. New variable
DEFAULT_PRINTER controls this (2=mono, 4=color)
* fix mksymlinks utility, create all necessary color links
Do 4 Jun 1998 23:17:20 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* apsfilter 4.9.7 released
* Added support for new HP DeskJet Driver in FreeBSD port of
ghostscript 5.10. As a result apsfilters SETUP needs to know
about the new printer drivers.
See: http://bonk.ethz.ch/hp850/hp850.html
http://bonk.ethz.ch/hp850/hp850-readme.1.3.html
* Put license.hp8 and readme.hp8 files from the new HP driver
into the doc directory. PLEASE READ THE README FILE, IT
CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFOS, WHAT THE NEW DRIVERS DO AND WHAT NOT.
THE OUTPUT OF THE NEW DRIVERS CAN BECOME HUGE !!!
* If you want that for Linux as well, you have to patch the
ghostscript sources and to rebuild ghostscript 5.10.
The URL's above contain some (not complete) instructions
how to do that.
* For more hints you can browse through my diffs in the
FreeBSD ports collection.
Fr 29 Mai 1998 00:23:28 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>

nearly all OS now use /var/spool ...
* apsfilter 4.9.6 released
Di 26 Mai 1998 21:10:11 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* From: Neil Hart <nhart@magma.ca>
1. the script setup/compile refers to the directory a2ps-4.2-akl-new,
but the source is actually in the directory a2ps-4.2-akl
2. the script setup/compile doesn't invoke Makefile.linux, but
instead simply defaults to use the (non-functional) Makefile
in that directory
3. the install_it script in the rewind-stdin directory has the
line ''cp rewindstdin $BINDIR" commented out, so it never
actually installs the program
So 17 Mai 1998 22:59:07 CEST Andreas Klemm <andreas@klemm.gtn.com>
* Release 4.9.5
* Nice idea from wizant.keidel@t-online.de (J.Keidel)

and then installed (no precompiled binaries in apsfilter/bin)
Tue Oct 24 18:20:09 MET 1995 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* released apsfilter 4.9.2, special version for FreeBSD 4.9.2
but same functionality as 4.9.1, so Linux users don't are
in any disadvantage ;-)
* make some little changes to apsfilter 4.9.1 to fit into
FreeBSD package format fine ;-)
* Added in setup a README file
* Modified the README in template
* globally changed version numbers to 4.9.2
* Modified ANNOUNCE file to inform people, that 4.9.2 is functionally
the same as 4.9.1, but packaged for FreeBSD 2.1

* Klaus-Dieter Henkel <henkel@aega84.AAT-F.AEG-F.DE>:
can't print PS and ASCII files onto a PS printer, because of
"HAVE_GS = True" checks in the wrong context. Obviously he doesn't
need ghostscript when having a PS printer. Moved the check to the
4th section when creating the PRINT_PS variable.
Thanks, this was a important fix !!
* Andrew Young <aty@mintaka.sdsu.edu>
Mr. ispell && grammer checker ;-))

fixes for setup_dvips.sh
Thu May 4 13:27:43 MET DST 1995 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.GUN.de>
* Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@mch.sni.de>:
Many many things, *thanks*:
- setupaps removed
- PRINT_TO_FILE disabled, was only for testing purposes
- set -x also.
- Test for empty variables changed ( -z "$XXX" )
- okidisplay.tar.gz into new contribution dir
Mon May 1 17:41:25 MET DST 1995 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.GUN.de>
* bin/setup_dvips.sh fixed: RES=RES_X added
Mon May 1 13:54:51 MET DST 1995 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.GUN.de>
* 4.9 Test release released
* Since there seem to be two different flavours of dvips program,
I introduced a DVIPS_RESOL_DorP Flag, to use -P or -D option when
changing print resulution. Defaults to -D for Thomas Essers
dvips (teTeX-0.3).
* Added an INSECURE Flag that can be set in /etc/apsfilterrc
globally. Only by setting INSECURE to True, its possible,
that users custom configuration file is executed with
lpd (sometimes root) Permissions.
Thu Mar 2 20:05:38 1995 Thomas Bueschgens <sledge@hammer.oche.de>
* created setup_dvip.sh to support newer versions of dvips. Thanks
to Thomas Esser for some metafont-tips.
* created README.TeX, just first version, but it'll suffice :-)
* Changed -D (RES) to -P (RES) in apsfilter (DVIPS_OPTS)
Mon Feb 6 19:30:55 MET 1995 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* uphya001@odie.physik2.uni-rostock.de (Lars Koeller)
His flavour of file command prompts with
"ascii text (with escape sequences)" when printing
PCL (HP command language) files. So the case structure
gets an alternative *escape*|*data*). And the case data
has to be moved before the case ascii clause.
Tue Jan 31 12:54:07 MET 1995 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* joe@fred.iaas-berlin.de (Joachim Schoenberg):
- in 4.9-gamma, typo in line 461, wrong fi at end of a command
- added "from $LOGINNAME" in fault filetype (for network print.)
Sat Jan 28 19:10:12 MET 1995 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* joe@fred.iaas-berlin.de (Joachim Schoenberg):
print data failed, solution: case *data*)
* eleminated GS_RESOL in apsfilter script. Trust ghostscripts defaults
in its printer driver. If you need it, the set it via apsfilterrc.
Modified sample apsfilterrc file.
Mon Jan 2 20:17:49 MET 1995 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* daub@einstein.cs.uni-duesseldorf.de:
apsfilter: A2PS_STD_OPTS changed to A2PS_STD_OPTIONS
* Christoph Junge <chris@cj.in-berlin.de>:
esc2 wrong -> escp2, changed in apsfilter
added st800, Stylus support.
* Michael_Nelson <nelson@seahunt.imat.com>
FAQ: problems with LJIII and 1 MB Ram when printing
with a2ps two pages on one and resol. = 300dpi.
Solution: resol 150x150.
* SETUP: touch SPOOLDIR/lock and chmod 644 for Slackware
2.1.0 necessary.
* Corey Sweeney <corey@bbs.xnet.com> and many others ...
want remote printing functionality ... ;-)
Here it is, the ugly hack:
bin/apsfilter: when setting REMOTE_PRINTER=True
then we print to a printer named remote.
So make a printer entry in /etc/printcap for your
printer named remote and set the environment variable
in bin/apsfilter ( ~ line 55)
Please note, now everything is being sent to the
_one_ remote printer ... sorry ... !!!!
Added some comments to the FAQ.
* Donald R. Newcomb <dnewcomb@whale.st.usm.edu>
Support for Panasonic KX-1123 (KX-1123P?).
Take type epson. Added epson support in bin/apsfilter
Hope dvips X and Y coordinates 360x180 are in the correct
order ... I'll hear from you ;-) FAQ updated.
* Lucas James <jj@ldjpc.apana.org.au>
rewindstdin fails for FreeBSD 2.X, because of the new
64 bit offsets. Added support for FreeBSD 2.X.
* From: Thorsten Frigger <thorsten@elmos.elmos.de>
SunOS 4.1.X / Solaris 1.1.X - file(1) can't read from pipe
Added FreeBSD's sources of file command. Solaris sysadms
can now fiddle around with that version. But beware, you
are on your own ... Don't know if its suitable to replace
the originally file command completely ... be careful !!!
* Steve Whorwood <steve@vertex.demon.co.uk>
Patch for a2ps.c. Slackware 2.0 with man 1.3 produces
other escape sequences for boldface, so a2ps fails
printing boldface correctly when printing manpages.
A fix for a2ps.c in the src tree provided ....
* bumped version counter to 4.9 in different files
* Updated FAQ
* fixed Toms e-mail address in the file DONATIONS,
to keep him happy ;-)
Tue Nov 1 09:20:17 MET 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
Stefan Roehrich <sr@stefan.tricbbs.fn.sub.org>
* changed typo in apsfilter, esc2 -> escp2.
Sun Oct 9 19:39:06 MET 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* changed mknew, not to include new and unfinished setupaps
stuff and RCS files for rel 481.
* gs isn't a public domain product. Changed this in ANNOUNCE
and WHO_AM_I. Hope I removed all occurrences.
* rolled Rel. 481
Sun Oct 2 17:27:51 MET 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* Vince Skahan wanted landscape printing:
Added a new a2ps feature in apsfilter: 1l and 1ln
Allows you to print one page landscape with and without
header.
Changed the code around a2ps, basic (needed) a2ps opts,
that must be kept even if user overwrite the A2PS_OPTS
variable in their apsfilterrc files. Updated apsfilterrc file.
Sun Oct 2 13:39:22 MET 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* bcr@physics.purdue.edu (Bill C. Riemers) asks for more security, so:
Security enhancements to SETUP. Check if we are installed
in a directory, that is owned by root, daemon or bin.
Otherwise inform user, ask for permission to fix it,
show user waht will be done. Exit, if user isn't willed
to give us permissions ...
Only exception are our developement machines knobel and
hammer ... since we develope under our user accounts ... ;-)
Fri Sep 30 10:43:06 MET 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* Work on bug (7), try to give each printer his own spool dir.
Sun Sep 25 17:48:12 MET 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* changed mknew, so that GNU tar follows symbolic links
* introduced a form to report bugs APS-BUG-FORM
added this info into INSTALL file
* bumped version to 4.8, changed 4.8 to 48 in GLOBAL.sh
so that mknew produces aps-48.tgz, as announced !!!
Sun Sep 25 12:55:41 MET 1994 Andreas Klemm
* removed the silly benchmark from SETUP
* a2ps manpage will be installed if certain fix
man-dirs are found.
* added option -nL for a2ps to suppress the user Login ID
as well when printing pages with no borders
(FEATURE 1n and 2n)
* updated documentation / installation
* introduced a TROUBLESHOOTING file, debugging hints ...
* changed the name of the variable DEBUG_TO_FILE
to PRINT_TO_FILE to make more clear, that print data
will be put into this file.
Real debugging output will be found in the file
PRINTER_SPOOLDIR/log as before !
* disabled debugging in the filter for the final
_release_ version 4.8
* added LOCAL_PATH in global/GLOBAL.sh, to be in sync with
TROUBLSHOOTING docu, how to add more local search paths
to needed programs.
* updated docu a bit. renamed some files, added some files
to be more clear.
Sat Sep 17 20:27:36 1994 Thomas Bueschgens (sledge@hammer.oche.de)
* Added PROBLEMS file so people know what to do in case of
trouble, whom to send mail to and so on!
* Let RCS take over the revision/release-numbers to avoid those
4.01Beta-names!! Two number should be sufficient, right?
* README: added pointer where to get pbmplus & jpeg-stuff if
someone needs to add this stuff to his machine to print
pictures.
* setup/filtersetup: added support for djpeg needed for printing
JPEG-Pictures. Introduces HAVE_DJPEG for apsfilter
automatically.
* bin/apsfilter.tom: added support for JPEG-pictures for both,
color and mono-printer. Due to that new Variable DJPEG_OPTS
which is set depending on color/mono-printer.
Wed Aug 31 21:28:20 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* rolled new version 403 Beta
Wed Aug 31 21:23:36 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* bug in SETUP, filtersetup run very early and don't find
a2ps and rewindstdin, filtersetup wasn't repeated later,
when a2ps and rewindstdin are compiled and installed ...
* since we compile in background, we wait for that ...
* introduced fun stuff ... do you have humour ?! ;-)
Sat Aug 27 18:38:48 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* bumped version count to 4.02 (Beta) to avoid confusion
Sat Aug 27 18:29:55 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* introduced global apsfilterrc file /etc/apsfilterrc
Therefore changed SETUP again.
* read apsfilterrc now erlier in apsfilter, not in the case
structure or functions ... Perhaps a bit overhead, but
shorter and better
* read global apsfilterrc first, so that there are sane
defaults, and then - if present - the users one ...
so the user gets his customization but if he has an
old template I keep apsfilter happy for the case, it
contains needed stuff for runtime.
Sat Aug 27 16:52:17 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* bumped version to 401B (Beta) to avoid confusion when
speaking about the new release ... ;-)
Sat Aug 27 15:23:33 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* Better documentation of template/apsfilterrc
* new compile/install utility setup/compile
* Enhanced the SETUP script in many ways ...
- script calls setup/compile
to automatically compile and install
a2ps and rewindstdin.
- additional remarks concerning user setup
(apsfilterrc) and remote printing...
Sat Aug 27 13:17:23 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.gun.de>
* My e-mail address changed ! ;-) Please note this ;-)
* Changed mknew to create smaller uuencoded Beta versions
If a apsfilter Release contains the letters {a,A,B,b}
( -> see GLOBAL.sh ) then this smaller archive is created
without doc and testfiles.
* End of SETUP utility tells you now what to do next:
compile and install a2ps and rewindstdin.
Wed Aug 24 18:22:18 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.kirsch.de>
* Some more installation instructions for a2ps and rewindstdin
in the README file.
Wed Aug 24 17:56:43 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.kirsch.de>
* changed apsfilter's fault_filetype function to be smarter
and nicer. Better formatted output and tells user now
about "unsupported" filetypes ... and that he might solve this
by typing lpr -Pascii or lpr -Praw.
Since it might be possible that he tried to print ascii files
containing control characters or such ... who knows what file(1)
reports ...
* fixed bug in SETUP, it didn't ask properly for BAUDRATE when
installing a serial printer. Asked for Device twice, removed
one question ;-)
* bj10e doesn't have 360dpi, changed it to 300dpi, hope that's
correct now.
Wed Aug 24 16:28:13 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.kirsch.de>
* Rolled the version 4.0-Beta
* Changed global/GLOBAL.sh to version 4.0
* Merged older changelog files into this one (beginning from
apsfilter 1.3 !!!)
* added Q 1.4 "Printing of long ascii listings
(C-Source,...) is dog slow..."
to FAQ
* added Q 1.5 "how to manage strange search paths for programs..."
to FAQ
* FAQ Q 1.1, ypu have to run filtersetup, not mksymlinks,
to add new filters to the apsfilter program.
* created a KNOWN_BUGS file - a todo file ...
Wed Aug 24 16:15:32 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.kirsch.de>
* removed doc/INSTALL since its meaningless ;-)
It explains to you how to extract the gnu zipped tar archive
aps-XXX.tgz. But to get that file/information you have to extract
the archive first ... you get the clue ?! ;-)
Wed Aug 24 15:22:34 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.kirsch.de>
* Updated README and WHO_AM_I to reflect the latest changes
* Changed the name WHO_AM_I to WHAT_AM_I to reflect the
purpose of this file better.
* removed README_QUICK_INSTALL since it didn't contain
valuable stuff and README is already smart to the user ;-)
* Created a file MANIFEST which is a list of all files
that belong to apsfilter with a short description for
what purpose they are. Removed that stuff from README.
* Added more information into README, which documents to
read next.
* Changed README to tell the user to install the template
file apsfilterrc into his home directory.
* introduced the file FAQ in apsfilters top level directory.
* put only apsfilter under RCS revision control
starting at apsfilter 4.1
* stripped apsfilter a bit more, moved changelog and
thanks to contributors into this file
Wed Aug 24 15:02:09 MET DST 1994 Andreas Klemm <andreas@knobel.knirsch.de>
* After Thomas had his `creative time' the version is again
owned by me ;-) This means testing and writing docu ;-)
Thanks Tom for your valuable work when I had no time
to change the things in the filter !
* Changed Makefiles of src/a2ps-4.2-akl-new and src/rewind-stdin.
Introduced the shellscripts install_it. These scripts are looking
in /etc/printcap, where apsfilter is really installed, to place
the binaries of a2ps and rewindstdin exactly in
$APS_BASEDIR/bin, which is on top of the search path in apsfilter.
This makes sure, that the enhanced a2ps will be used instead of
older ones. Same for other tools needed for apsfilter.
* The install_it scripts checks and makes sure, that apsfilter
has to be installed first before attempting to install
a2ps and rewindstdin.
Thu Aug 11 14:23:15 1994 Thomas Bueschgens (sledge@hammer.oche.de)
* setup/mksymlinks: create necessary symlinks if color printers
are choosen.
* SETUP: added support for color-printers so the correct entries
for /etc/printcap are computed.
remove FEATURE from setup, this is user-configurable by now from
.apsfilterrc
Wed Aug 10 10:06:53 1994 Thomas Bueschgens (sledge@hammer.oche.de)
* bin/apsfilter.tom: added PNMTOPS-variable to control wether
color or mono-pics are created.
recompute HAVE_PNMTOPS to depend on HAVE_PPMTOPGM if mono is
used to ensure correct error-messages if pbm-utils are installed
incomplete.
* setup/filtersetup: added ppmtopgm to the list of
needed/supportet filters so color-data may be converted to
mono-data.
* bin/apsfilter.tom: moved A2PS_MARGIN-definition to print_ascii()
so it is only defined if necessary.
Tue Aug 9 16:36:59 1994 Thomas Bueschgens (sledge@hammer.oche.de)
* bin/apsfilter.tom: changed 'echo $0' to 'basename $0' sp
paths with '-' are recognized correctly, too.
Mon Aug 1 09:09:05 1994 Thomas Bueschgens (sledge@hammer.oche.de)
* SETUP: removed the choice wether to modify /etc/magic or not
since this caused errors on many systems
Corrected some typos
* template/: changed the README and added a warning that
double-entries in /etc/magic may cause malfunctions of apsfilter
* global/GLOBAL.sh: changed one path to reflect my systems
tex-installation
* doc/: changed the documentation a bit to keep track with the
newest changes
* SETUP: read BAUD if installing a serial-printer, don't write
APS_BASEDIR to /etc/printcap if addinga printer
* template/apsfilterrc: added the HAVE_MAKETEXPK and
FEATURE-templates to the example-apsfilterrc
* bin/apsfilter.tom: clean up documention in apsfilter, changed
a2ps-options, added HAVE_MAKETEXPK-flag
moved FEATURE-recognition from apsfilters name to users config
file .apfilterrc, prepared use of color-property
added support for compacted ASCII-files if ascii-filetype was
forced
================================================================================
changes 3.0.1 -> 3.0.2
================================================================================
[ some fixes from Bob Trush <rd@tarpit.oau.org> ], thanks !
- corrected typo in README, README_QUICK_INSTALL and setup
- added support for HP Laserjet 4l "ljet4l"
- support for BSD/386 from BSDI
- new variable MAGIC defines where the magic(5) file can be found
- grabs HOME_DIR more precisely using grep "^$LOGINNAME:" ....
- more precise and effective usage of the shells eval command
for eval $PRINT_PS ...
- added/changed PATH in GLOBAL.sh
- added HAVE_MAKETEXPK to decide wether to create fonts while
print_dvi or not
================================================================================
changes 3.0 -> 3.0.1 (AKL)
================================================================================
- changed $APS_BASEDIR/bin/GLOBAL.sh to $APS_BASEDIR/global/GLOBAL.sh
- lowercase the output of the file(1) command to be more portable
rewritten the queries in the case structure
================================================================================
changes 2.3 -> 3.0 (AKL)
================================================================================
- removed reverse print order for nec printers
- added -M option not to call MakeTeXPK to create missing fonts
when printing with dvips because of a bug in the script that causes
an exit of apsfilter and not printing anything.
- ascii->a2ps: added missing -1 option when printing in portrait.
- HOME_DIR is users homedir. Here we look for ps files that might
be included when printing dvi files with dvips using the feature,
to include Postscript pictures produced by xfig or other programs...
- introduced a .apsfilter config file in each users home directory
allows the user to add printer specific initialization when printing
raw ascii text
var. PRINT_RAW_SETUP_PRINTER allows to set special init commands
var. PRINT_RAW_SUPPRESS_FORMFEED suppresses formfeed after print_raw
- modifications for EPSON STYLUS (gs' printer type esc2 wasn't managed
by the filter.
- added support for esc2 printers ;-) I forgot them uiiii ;)
- removed $ECHO which represented an echo command that can handle
control characters \xxx since printf is used for that ...
- introduced user custom print and feature commands in some
print functions ... print_dvi, print_raw, print_ps ....
user defineable via $HOME/.apsfilterrc file
- removed Preserving of TMP_FILE since we don't have any ...
- added a global setup file bin/apsfilterrc that is created during
installation by bin/filtersetup. It contains env. variables that tell
us, which filter programs are available or not (gs, dvips, a2ps,...)
If you add a filter, then you have to edit filtersetup and rerun it.
In apsfilter you should ask then, if a special filter is available
before trying to call it ....
- added sun rasterfile support
- read PATH from GLOBAL.sh
- removed all occurrences of TMP_DIR, since not necessary anymore
- added /usr/openwin/bin to searchpath for Sun's Solaris 1 to
find ras2ps....
- added filter support for gif and fig
- print sunraster using Poskanzer bitmap utilities, if ras2ps isn't there
- can print compressed files compressed by: compress, gzip, pack, freeze
one exception, doesn't work on compressed dvi files (dvips -> gs)
- and certainly some more .... ;-)

# A possible solution is to force the script to handle imput data as text or
# something else.
#
# exit 1 on print fault caused lpd to print the file again and again
# and lots of tmp files made TMP_DIR full.. so we have to exit 0 in any case
#
# Introduced MAILX variable. /bin/mail = elm on Linux. Elm didn't find
# ~/Mail directory, so it failed to send $NOTIFY a mail when a print error

section that makes printer specific modifications very simple !
