G'Day Paul,

-=> Quoting Paul Edwards to Frank Adam <=-

 PE> You might find the code nicer as "\x1b\x19R".  Then again,
 PE> go "\x1b\x19E" because the 19E looks like a single hex number.
 PE> two workarounds, ie:
 PE> "\x1b\x19" "E"
 PE> and
 PE> "\x1b\x1b\x45"
i prefer this one to the former.
 PE> I don't think either of them is particularly nice.  BFN.  Paul.
No, and i wouldn't want to use it like that in the code.
Suppose #define LP_EJECT "\x1b\x19\x45" and hide it in a header file would
make at least the code look nice.
Come to think of it i should make a prntdef.h anyway.
