RE: new in emacs

["barak yaish" <yaishb@mail.biu.ac.il>]

still doesn't help. when i'm trying to print a buffer, i got a message:
"spooling with options (headers not supported)...done" and nothing is
printed out.

i don't want to miss emacs for such stupid thing.

Try using the customize facility.

M-x customize-option<ret>
printer-name<ret>

In the "Name:" box enter:

//BIU/pr-mehr-2200-2

and press "Save for future sessions".

If you haven't set the environment variable "HOME" to anything (under
Control Panel => System => Advanced => Environment Variables) then I
believe Emacs treats your home directory as C:\. You can easily find
out: enter C-x d then, at the prompt, press ~ and then <return>. Emacs
will open a directory listing of what it considers to be your home
directory, with the name at the top of the buffer.

Hope this helps.

PS If there's any way for you to disable the sending of html it would
probably be appreciated.
