- PQ - A simple WinSock printer queue viewer.
-
- version 0.02
- 1/9/94
- - Fixed some minor problems that should make it more stable.
-
- This program is free. Which also means if it doesn't work, you don't get
- your money back.
-
- Disclaimer
- ----------
-
- It works for me, most of the time. It may never work for you. It may start
- to work and then stop. If this or any other problem occurs, including but
- not limited to, system crashes, infestations of ants, mosquitos, flys or
- elephants, floods, fires or earthquakes, it's your own fault for running
- the program in the first place.
-
- This program comes with absolutely no warrantee.
-
- If it works, I'd love to know about it, and also if you have problems, or
- suggestions for improvements.

- Command line
- ------------
-
- pq ip.address.goes.here printer
-
- eg :
-
- pq 199.99.87.98 ps
-
- pq will display what is on the queue in the standard lpq fashion, and will
- continue to do this each 20 seconds or so. Eventually, it may fall over
- with some sort of bind error. I don't know why this happens - I don't
- know much about Windows Sockets. If you do, or you know of some information
- about programming Windows sockets, tricks, traps, pitfalls etc, I'd greatly
- appreciate it.
