Using NOTEPAD Anyone Know the parameters?

[jkerman]

I currently use the following:
set device to [textfile]
THEN use notepad to Print the textfile
======================================
notepad/b [textfile]
BUT
===
I need to use the maximum 80 characters width.
"notepad/p [textfile], won't print 80 characters width, and I can't change left & right margins for use in Clipper.
Anyone know any available parameters to change default NOTEPAD left-Right MARGINS, etc??

Can Someone PLEASE help??
OR What is the best and easiest way to change my program so I can use it on any Computer with any Windows printer, that isn't DOS compatible.
THANKS To ALL Suggestions and Help.

You can change the margins and the header and footer by selecting File->Page Setup... However, these changes are not permanent. I don't know of anyway to change them via command line.

Rather than using Notepad, try using WordPad or Write.

Oops, forgot the command syntax:

start wordpad /p [filename]

 

[jkerman]

Thanks [WindowWizard], Do you, or anyone one know of the command-line parameters for Write or WordPad?

Anyone know of the (DOS) Command-line parameters for Write or WordPad or Notepad?
