This is probably irrelevent to Ada but this has only started happening
since I have started using GNAT 304A for Win95. (I also use VI for
text-editing purposes if that matters??) For some strange reason my
computer will sometimes arbitrary decide to copy everything that is
displayed on the screen from the dos command line to the printer, ex:
if I type dir, then I get the directory on the screen, but also it is
copied to the printer, along with the next command prompt,etc,etc...
any compiler messages are displayed not only on the screen but also on
the printer. I do not have any idea what set of circumstances are
causeing this - could it have something to do with Win95? Elvis
(vi-like editor), GNAT 304a? I have seen this happen on a few other
PC's before that were on a Novell LAN, but I could'nt figure out why
it happened there either. If anyone has a clue please drop me a line
at jconley@mindspring.com
thanks!,
james
