Can I use tee to branch the log output to printer and file? I want the entrys to print one at a time in realtime. for that I think a dotmatrix printer is the answer, but I couldn't find any new dotmatrix printers for under $200. It doesn't have to be fast or print really sharp. i plan on printing about 2000 lines (40 pages?) per day. Any one have recommendations? thank you - thierry _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
