Description mrsteven 2005-12-06 08:05:50 UTC

a2ps-print, an extension to emacs which gets installed with a2ps does not 
work. It just says "Spooling...done" but nothing else happens. 
 
This is because /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/a2ps-print.el does not pass the 
"-d" switch to a2ps-print. I'll attach a patch that solves this problem. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start emacs 
2. type something 
3. M-x load-library "a2ps-print" 
4. M-x a2ps-buffer 
 
Actual Results:  
Hmm, nothing.    

Expected Results:  
It should have printed the buffer.
