Subject: [9fans] recompiling gs
Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2009 22:19:31 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c980953250a087d0bc6c3642211254fd@csplan9.rit.edu> (raw)

Last year, I set up my old Okidata Microline 320 dot-matrix printer on
Plan 9 (text-only print, no postscript as I recall), but in the time
since then my old hard drive has failed and I've had to get a new
system set up.  This time, I'd like to try getting it to print with gs
so I can have a few amenities.

It looks like I'll want to use the okiibm driver, so I put that in the
DRIVERS= section of /sys/src/cmd/gs/mkfile, ran mk fake-make and then
mk install.  gs successfully built, but gs -h doesn't show okiibm
among the available devices.  Have I missed a step here?


Thanks

John Floren
