Celestial Software

Is it possible to print an entire email message in Pine? I tried using the normal command Y and it pops up print to ansi attached printer but then nothing happens.

Print screen and print selection work fine.

Thanks,

Beth

Beth,

This should work just fine. At least, I am able to use AbsoluteTelnet 2.11 and Pine 4.33 with no problem.

You might want to make sure that you are using at least AbsoluteTelnet 2.00 as some of the Passhtru printing stuff was enhanced for that version. You may also want to look at the settings under Options->Properties->VT Options for Passhtru printing. You can configure it to send the data to printer or file, plus some other things that might help.

If you're still having trouble, post back here.

One last thing.....

In my version of Pine, printing is done via the '%' (percent) key.

Still doesn't work. I have Absolute 2.00 (how can I upgrade?) and I have Pass Through Printing set up to Always Use Default Printer and Print Direct to Printer.

It seems to be working but after the Printer Software starts it simply dies. For whatever reason this does not happen when I choose Print Screen or Print Selection from the File menu.

Any ideas?

What make/model of printer are you using???
