I'm looking for a way to send an INIT signal to a centronics part---I
need this to drive some non-standard hardware.  (I.e. from C code.)

The code is obviously in the kernel (and seems to get run at boot
time), I just don't know how to invoke it from user space.  Any help
would be *much* appreciated.

Cheers =8-} Mike
