[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #31967] Cannot print in eps form in fltk printing

[Ben Abbott]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #31967 (project octave):

For unix systems, I used "cat >" as a simple approach to redirect stdin to a
file.

I used an online DOS reference to find equivalents. Apparently my DOS
solutions aren't working. However, I'm not sure if the problem is due to the
missing ^Z, or due to how the copy command works.

What happens if the line below in __fltk_print__ ...


    waitpid (pid);


... is replaced by


    fprintf (pid, "%s", char (26));


I would have expected your idea to use 'cat' from CoreUtils for Windows to
work. There are 3 instances where "copy con" need to be replaced by "cat >".
They are on line 476, 504, and 510 of print.m. For "print test.eps" to work,
only line 510 needs to be changed. Did you replace "copy con" on line 510?
