DESCRIPTION
With nprint, you can print files on print queues of a Net
Ware file server.
There are a lot of options, so you should probably wrap
some default configurations into some shell scripts.
nprint looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file
server, a user name and possibly a password. See
nwclient(5) for more information. Please note that the
access permissions of .nwclient MUST be 600, for security
reasons.
