Hugo -

It's been a bit since I mucked with SPL, and I don't recall the printer being
offline causing a problem (note: I was running it on a 6809 Gimix).

On the linefeeds, check:

 a) Is the descriptor set for -lf?

 b) Is thr printer set to add LF's to CR's? Some Tandy printers default
    to this mode.

Both a and b are trivial to fix...

Back to the offline printer.... No print stuff should be sent until splman
spawns splprt. There are no splprt's hanging around, are there? Also - what's
your parallel port setup? Lastly... I used to use
 the /r0/SPL directory (it'll check /r0/spl or /dd/spl)....

Pete
