Kirk, thank You, this script seems very promising!
I need some more details about Your script:
1) In which folder should I put it and then in terminal "cd" to?
2) How exactly should I run it? Address of parport is 0x378. How
exactly should that command look?
3) Is the effect of setting the parport to EPP permanent or do I have
to run this every time before using EMC?
