Silly newbie question: what is everybody using to support INFO's
M-x print-node command? It wants to pipe into a command that will Do The Right
Thing, but I haven't been able to find a command that will copy standard input
to a file (e.g. LPT1:) without using redirection (which appears not to work in
this context).
I gave up and wrote a tiny program to do that, but I thought I'd be less
embarassed if I asked about other options before offering it to the world,
rather than being told of them afterward.
