Yes, certainly that causes the output to go to the printer, but
it is a print job submission done by RMS and does not make use
of the VMS spooling capability. It probably does not meet the
portability goal, since other systems do not have RMS. Actually
to meet the portability goal I think he might be better off using
the general spooling capability, but that is for him to decide.
