Installing BSD symlinks
---------- --- --------
Since the "rlpr" "rlpq" and "rlprm" commands are complete replacements
for their BSD counterparts, the BSD commands by these names can be
actually replaced by symlinks to the rlpr versions. When the rlpr
commands are invoked with their BSD names, they will act like their BSD
counterparts (the "--verbose" option can be used to restore their
traditional behavior).
On a Debian system, it is suggested that these symlinks should be placed
in the /usr/local/bin directory, so that they do not conflict with files
in any Debian packages. These links may be created with the following
commands:
ln -s /usr/bin/rlpr /usr/local/bin/lpr
ln -s /usr/bin/rlpq /usr/local/bin/lpq
ln -s /usr/bin/rlprm /usr/local/bin/lprm
Alternatively, each user can create these links for himself by adding an
additional directory to his PATH, say "/home/bem/bin", and making the
links with
ln -s /usr/bin/rlpr /home/bem/bin/lpr
ln -s /usr/bin/rlpq /home/bem/bin/lpq
ln -s /usr/bin/rlprm /home/bem/bin/lprm
