it should do.

i usually do: Edit ,>lp

you could do "lp body", or "lp 1/body.pdf" to print
a pdf.

the problems come when someone sends me html mail (e.g.  an airline
confirmation).  i don't know any way of printing out a decent
representation of a web page from plan 9 - i'm usually forced to go to
windows for that, eugh.  word and excel documents are bad too,
aux/antiword notwithstanding.

htmlfmt often works fine on confirmation htmls.

How do other acme mail users print out e-mails?  I have a long
flight itenerary and while I could sweep the whole window and
run >lp, surely there's an easier way.  An Edit of 1,$>lp doesn't
seem to do it.

Doh.  Running 'Edit ,>lp' works.  Highlighting ',>lp' and 2-1 chording
Edit does not.  Brain fart.

Thanks -
