Re: Setting lines to print per page....

Kai,

Hey, thanks.  It works perfectly.

The menu would be less ambiguous if "lpr-command" were called
"print-command" and "lpr-switches" were called
"printer-command-switches".  Yes, I realize that's not going to happen.  

Is it a good guess that all the menu item names in Customize are the
same (after making lower case and replacing spaces with dashes) as the
elisp variable names which they set?


Thanks++,
ken

= lpr-switches is a list.  Add an item.  Put "-o" in it.  Add another
= item.  Put "cpi=12" in it.  And so on.
= 
= Also set lpr-command to lp.
