   In that case, you might be interested in PRINTEXT, via sig line 3.   
      
   It is intended for running at a Win-32 MSDOS prompt, probably in a batch   
   file, reading plaintext files and printing on the default Windows   
   printer.   
      
   You can compile and run it with BP7, but then it will not actually print   
   (it was written in BP7, but compiled with command-line Delphi 3, which I   
   do not currently have installed; the Delphi EXE is in & by the ZIP).   
      
   In particular, number of copies, font size & colour, page orientation,   
   and pages per sheet are set by parameters.  Guide marks for hole punches   
   can be provided.
