- PROGRAMMER'S FILE PRINTER
- FOR WINDOWS 3
-
-
- Abstract
- --------
-
- Programmer's File Printer is a Windows 3 application that lets you print text
- files such as program listings, and produce hexadecimal dumps of binary files.
-
- You have full control over the format of a text file listing: you can specify
-
- - whether lines are numbered
- - whether pages have headers
- - whether long lines are wrapped or truncated
- - the size of tab stops
-
- as well as selecting the type face and size. For both text listings and hex
- dumps, you can choose to print either the whole file, or only a part.
-
- You can, if you wish, specify a set of listing attributes to be used for all
- files of a given type, such as '.c' or '.asm', so that they are automatically
- listed in the way you want. You can also set attributes on an individual file
- basis.
-
- Files can be printed in reverse page order for devices that stack pages the
- wrong way.
