RE: [h-e-w] print-NT.el

[Jeff Rancier]

If I visit a file remotely with ange-ftp, and try to print, some package is
trying to kick off the lpr command remotely via rsh.

I am using:

(defun nt-ps-print-buffer ()
  "Print buffer using postscript."
  (interactive)
  (if ps-print-use-faces
      (ps-print-buffer-with-faces ps-lpr-buffer)
    (ps-print-buffer ps-lpr-buffer)
    )
  (ps-print-lpr-buffer ps-lpr-buffer)
  )

Why would they need rsh running? ps-print doesn't use rsh.
It sounds like you are jumping through a lot of hoops just to get
the basic functionality that already exists in ps-print-buffer.
