I have a couple of questions regarding Carl Kreider's SPL print
spooling package.

1. This is a portion of my startup file:

    dmode /r0 sct=00c0
    iniz r0
    mkdir /r0/spl
    copy /dd/sys/splq /r0/spl/splq
    splman -p1=/p -w1=139 -t1=15 -o1=-a&

   If the printer happens to be off-line during startup, the program
   never realizes the printer is available at some point later on.  The
   only way to get a print job started is to do a:

    splstat -p1=/p

Is there a way to circumvent or fix this feature?

I would like to make the system as seamless as possible for my wife!

2. Even though my startup file explicitly says to NOT add LFs,
   I still get extra spacing between lines unless I actually
   use the 'a' switch with spl (like LIST FILENAME ! SPL -a).  Is this
   a feature or a bug?

Any and all answers are appreciated.  Other than that, its a great
package.
