The files in this directory are intended to be used with the
-DXPERIMENT option of the lpd source.
See the "PLP Reference Manual, Section 13" (what else?) for details
on how to run the tests.

The files in test/ are sufficient to install a mini-lpd system.
It operates out of /tmp, and does not need to be owned by root.

-- you must change the HOST and USER entries in Makefile so that
   the correct ones are installed.

The "make bin" will create and install a couple of nice
debugging oriented filters.

The filter shell script is used as a filter, and has  a
of interesting options;  the -delayNNN option delays NNN
seconds before terminating;  you can specifiy a this in the
printcap file,  say as:
	:of=/tmp/filter -delay30:
and the filter will delay 30 seconds after starting.

In order to verify that error handling is being handled correctly,
the -errorNNN will terminate (after a -delayNNN)
with a error NNN.

I suggest that you also look at the ../filter/lpf.c program
for some hints on how to write filters,  if you are feeling
masochistic.
