No. We've allready covered that. Any redirection or CTTY or
DOORWAYing will still work. CTTY PRN seems hardly a useful
command unless you've got an AI printer though. I just tried
4DOS with CTTY over a null link and it works fine. I've been
using 4DOS with direct writes for 2 years with no problems at
all.
