Hi,

I personally don't own a printer (you're not very eager to purchase an ink
pisser when you have a giant laser printer at work) but ...

IMHO the WDIALOG functionality (or non-functionality) belongs neither into 
a TSR nor into the AES.  Why not write an lp daemon for MiNT that works?
That lp daemon could then handle the standard Unix way (i. e. handle
Postscript) and could also provide the WDIALOG functionality.

A lot of work, but you all got plenty of time, haven't you?

Ciao

Guido
