Hello again,
I'm fiddling with the ifhp.conf on my system, and I'm getting an
(apparently nonfatal) error from ifhp that I haven't been able to figure
out.
What I'd like is for the default ifhp entry to contain the following
file_output_match:
file_output_match = [
*gif* filter \%s{gif_converter}
*jpeg* filter \%s{jpeg_converter}
*tiff* filter \%s{tiff_converter}
*gzip_compressed* filter \%s{gzip_decompress}
]
(The image converters all convert from some image format to pnm, which is
then converted to something else [e.g., postscript] for individual
printers).
Then, for another printer entry, I'd like to supplement the default
converters with printer specific ones, like this:
[ apple postscript ps ]
file_output_match += [
*postscript* ps
*roff* ps \%s{troff_converter}
*text* ps \%s{a2ps_converter}
*pdf* ps \%s{pdf_converter}
*dvi* ps \%s{dvi_converter}
*pnm* ps \%s{pnm_converter}
*ppm* ps \%s{pnm_converter}
]
Now, this *seems* to be working -- for instance, if I try to print a gzip
compressed JPEG image, this is what I get:

What concerns me is the "bad pattern" error:
Filter_status: bad pattern in 'file_output_match' - ']' at 22:55:05.628
This *only* occurs if I use '+=' in the above file_output_match...if I manually
include the common filters, it works just fine. Is there an obvious
syntax error that I'm missing?
Thanks,
