rcvprint(C)

rcvprint -- print message automatically

Syntax

/usr/bin/rcvprint

Description

The rcvprint command is intended to be run from your $HOME/.maildelivery file. The purpose of rcvprint is to pipe the body of the message into a program that prints the message on a line printer. The rcvprint program tries a variety of different programs until it finds one that will execute. It then waits to see how the program coped and reports back to the local channel.

Examples

A typical entry in your $HOME/.maildelivery file is:

   subject    printer    pipe    A    rcvprint

Specify the full pathname of rcvprint if the /usr/bin directory is not in your search path.
