subject: fake lpt4 driver

EH> What I would like to do, but I dont know how, is to write a driver which
 EH> fakes an lpt4 in my pc. This port could then be trapped by FaxWorks, to
 EH> redirect my output to a fax. (I allready have 3 printers to 3 existing
 EH> lpt-ports connected).

OS/2 already supports 9 line printer ports. If you attach your FaxWorks device
to LPT4 in Output, it should accept as input all data sent to LPT4 from
other programs.
