Hallo,

> I have GNU Enscript ready as a package here, setup.hint:

Hey, I got three pro votes;)
Corinna, Stipe & Lapo.
No contras...
Now someone needs to check if I don't messed it up somehow.
I have problems printing through lpr.  Could someone verify
this or give me a hint why lpr (cygutils package) refuses
to print for me?  Error message: 'RPC Server not available'
(translated from german:
$ enscript muttrc.txt2.txt
lpr: can't open 'prn' for writing
lpr: Der RPC-Server ist nicht verfügbar.)

However, output into a file works ok, so I assume that output to
a printer should work ok too if I set up my box for this.
I will also check the archives about this issue.  Unfortunately
there is no manpage for lpr, maybe I find some infos in the source.
