I'd send this to an appropriate group, but the only one I could find
was for gnu.emacs.vm.info, which I wasn't sure was info in the first
place, and probably not DOS compatible (The inhabitants, that is).

In the info command list, it states that 'INFO_PRINT_COMMAND' should
be set to the command you wish to use to print (invoked: M-x
print-node).  How should I set that to print to a file/device?  It
says it would pipe it to the command, but I didn't seem to get
anything from info... my test command was 'copy con lpt1', and similar
output of the copy con to a file produced nothing as well.  If you use
just 'lpt1' it'll try to invoke it as a command, and hence doesn't
work.

Also, can you change how Info links input to command?  For example, so
I could set C-p to print-node?  And finally, could someone direct me
to the Info source?  Please respond via e-mail unless if it's
all-encompassing.  Thank you.
