1. eprint.e and line wrap
David or Anyone,
I am using your EE Editor and when I print a file that has lines >
80
characters long, my printer is set to wrap the line. When I have
several
lines that wrap on a page the next page will print just a couple of
lines
and then form feed. I need to know how to increment the line count
when a line is > 80 characters in eprint.e? I have not tried to print
in
condensed print yet, so am unaware of how this behaves in condensed
print.
TIA (Thanks In Advance)

Probably cleaner ways, but this will tell you the number to increment at
the time of print.
CAUTION: Not Tested
function pluscount( integer a, integer b)
if floor( a/b) = (a/b) then
-- Basically, if remainder = 0
return floor(a/b)
else
-- Otherwise, increment to cover remaining letters.
return floor(a/b) + 1
end if
end function
-- To Add Each Time. This handles all lengths and will increment only 1 if
-- length of printline is less than or equal to desired length
linecount = linecount + plusscount(length(printline),80)

Wow. I didn't know that you could actually print with EE. I had written the code
some time back, but never had a printer to test it on.
Since the code is based on (read: stolen from) Robert's code, you might want to
ask him.
Sorry. I'll try to remember to test it in my non-existant spare time, now that I
actually do own a printer.
