- Hi Pierre,
-
- greater than 8 bpp will have to wait until after Executor 2.0 ships.
- To support 24 bpp shouldn't be too hard, but our graphics guru may be
- assigned to the "System 7.5 drop-in" project, so I can't really say
- when after 2.0 we'll go for > 8bpp.
-
- Printing from Executor works under Executor/NEXTSTEP but isn't
- particularly supported under Linux or DOS right now. I'll try to get
- that support going soon. Most of it is there already, but we had
- other fires to fight (the preparation of our 2.0 TODO list and the
- creation of "Appendix A") that have kept me away from that task of
- late.

- I have 2 questions for the developer's team of Executor.
-
- 1- Will Executor support 24bpp soon or later? or something else than
-
- 8bpp? If so, before next summer?
-
- 2- How can we print from Executor? and even more important, how does
- it
-
- work? Who handles the job (the print manager AND/OR LPD under
- Linux)?
-
-
- Thanks a lot,
- Pierre B.
