Yes I removed it! But the following is more interesting... Attempting to print a 368K Hypercard stack, and all I got was 2 pages out of 28. The reason was that the generated PostScript which lwsrv sucked down to /tmp was a frightening 10.1 megabytes! lpr refuses to copy that lot, and printed only 1 megabyte. Soltuion: Give lpr the -s option in lwsrv and it printed all 28 pages. But it took 2.5 hours. But I am very pleased since my Mac was only tied up for 10 minutes! Great stuff!
