And Debian psutils uses /etc/papersize (actually libpaperg, a wrapper around that one line file), since that's the Debian way. The locale method doesn't make sense, as what size paper the printer has is not usually a user setting. Also, the locale system has two alternatives, letter or A4, ignoring the possiblity that someone might have, say, legal size paper loaded. -- David Starner - [EMAIL PROTECTED] "It's not a habit; it's cool; I feel alive.
