- SETUP: added support for configuring remote printer
Beware: you still have to make sure, that your line printer scheduler supports
input filter processing with remote printers as it is the case for FreeBSD 3.x
and later with a "fixed" lpd, as well as for Unix systems with LPRng installed
as lineprinter scheduler, which is the case for some (not all !!!) Linux
Systems.
- Add support for printing with SAMBA (SAMBA_PRINTER)
- Bugfix. Some printer dependend settings will be overwritten, when installing
a 2nd printer, which might cause printing with the 1st printer to fail,
especially if the first printer is color and 2nd B&W or vice versa.
Revamped SETUP and bin/apsfilter to get around this.
- Added SETUP menue entries for the uniprint driver

- New FAQ entries concerning print margins when printing ASCII text with a2ps
- updated howto and troubleshooting document
HOWTO-BUGREPORTS moved to toplevel, so that its easier to find.
everything that anybody could need in a program printout without
the need for large numbers of switches or pipelines. Trueprint can
currently handle C, C++, Java, Perl, Verilog, shell (including ksh), Pascal,
pseudo C, report files (trueprint report files), listing files, text files.

1. Change freetype-1.2 to freetype-1.3 in post-install, so
it can find freetype sources to build ttf2pk & ttf2tfm.
2. It no longer uses moettf, but Arphic ttf instead, which
has no character loss and IMHO much more beautiful. :)
3. Generates GB tfms from Arphic fonts.
4. Update maintainer's address.

- Update apsfilter to new version 5.1.4
- Use a2ps-letterdj as default in dialog setup script
This should fix problems for most HP Deskjet and
Espon print Problems because of wrong print margins
This is even recommended for A4 printing !!!
apsfilter 5.1.3 - 5.1.4 changes:
- added uniprint directory for contributed ghostscript uniprint driver files
- uniprint driver contribution for Epson Stylus Color 740
- support for using different uniprint driver profiles for one printer,
updated apsfilterrc with example
- fixed shell scripts, so that SETUP runs with Solaris 7 /bin/sh
(remember, you still need to replace your SVR4 compatible printing
subsystem with LPRng, if you want to use apsfilter on Solaris 7 and
related SVR4 compatible Unix derivates)
- added docu on how to configure apsfilter for remote printing
doc/REMOTE-PRINTING
- Update FAQ concerning
- how to adjust page margins (if some pixels are missing
in your printout)
- Change default for printing ASCII documents to
single page on a sheet, portrait format, without any header or border
- Updated apsfilterrc to be more verbose about the difference of
the legacy a2ps config option "FEATURE"
vs. the new recommended way "A2PS_OPTS"
- cosmetic in SETUP, see ChangeLog file
- [internal]: improve make-release script
