postscript printing multiple files

postscript printing multiple files

[Brad Fonseca]

Hello!

Is it possible to postscript print multiple files with Emacs at the same 
time?  I know that one can do this on the command line with:

enscript -1G *.cpp 

,assuming I want all the .cpp files printed from the current working 
directory.  My guess is that it is done in Emacs in the minibuffer (meta-x 
...) but a better hint would be helpful.

Thanks,

My guess is that dired may have such a functionality. Hm, there's
`dired-do-print' but this uses "lpr" to print the files, not
`ps-print-buffer'. Maybe you can write a function similar to
`dired-do-print' (see `dired.aux.el') using `ps-print-buffer'.

In another thread `printing.el' was mentioned, see
news:<uelbssvek.fsf@raibau.raiffeisen.at>. Maybe it offers this
functionality too (I don't know this package).

Bye, Reiner.
