This results in an approximate 2/3 reduction in the size of files sent to the printer. A secondary benefit (although the original motivation) is the elimination of the extra blank page spewed out at the end of a printout. Some changes were made to the terminal tables at the same time. -- David Trueman @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!david
