Re: NB: Question: Strip.prn

[Richard Giering dick.giering@xxxxxxxx]

I use the TYPEF command, BUT need the proper PRN
file to make it work correctly. If one types to a
file with the "regular" prn file, the result is a
file ready for actual printing with the print
controls included. Strip.prn prepares the file
(generated with typef) for exchange rather than
for printing.
