Printer Command Codes FOR SALE

[gbrown]

In preparation for The Big Move I'm cleaning out the office closets. Among the gems (such as a box of Fortran IV punched codes that I've been dragging around since '69 and an 8-track computer tape from who-knows-when ) are three books:

Programmers' Handbook of Computer Pinter Commands

Programmers' Handbook of Computer Pinter Commands - II

Programmers' Handbook of Computer Pinter Commands - III

by Fred and Mary Lou East. "For printer models as new as 1986". I'm going to be sticking these up on eBay, but I figured I see if anyone in the group is interested. Thirty bucks US (that's $4,560,232 CN for you folks up north) takes the set.

What's a computer pinter? =P

Automated beer delivery system perhaps

Almost - but that's got a metric driver it's not a pinter!

Hey! I like that... after I get the brewing system re-installed over at The Dot's I'll think of setting my tap in an old box.
