Most esteemed gurus of the linux path, this newbie is in need of
guidance/suggestions.  I have Slakware 4.0 installed with the
2.2.6 kernel, and I would like to learn how to be able to get
output like I get from the Winderz Off. 97 program.  I don't have
any snazzy Word Processing programs set up.  I am hoping that
emacs, which I am also in the larval stages with, is capable of
giving me esthetically pleasing output that will awe my college
professors.  Presently I can "cat filename | lpr" and it dumps
the text file to the printer.  I suspect there is a more
sophisticated way to obtain a more formal output, but I haven't
made it there yet.  I have tried searching down what HOWTO's I
could find and one suggested APSfilter, which I tried setting up
but eventhough I didn't get any nasty/criptic messages, and it
appeared to do whatever it was supposed to do, and I really don't
have any idea what that was, I'm still lost.  I suspect there is
something I needed to learn that I missed, so
guidance/suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks in
advance!..Jay Hays
