We are using shareware called ShowPages for printing. ShowPages is a small utility for downloading PostScript code and printing ASCII text files on your PS printer from a Mac. This is a freeware and can be downloaded from www.macdownload.com. The current version is 1.4.1. The Coeus installer will put ShowPages in the same folder as Coeus. In the coeus.ini file there is an entry named MacPrinterApp= which should contain the complete path to ShowPages. Coeus invokes ShowPages through an apple script and tells it to print the file. The Apple script looks something like this. tell application :ShowPages print file end tell FixCoeusini is a perl program that runs during installation of Coeus. It sets the path to Showpages, and also sets the path for the temp directory. If a user moves the location of Coeus to a different folder on their machine after installation, fixcoeusini should be run again.
