I have a couple of comments:
(As I have told Martin) lpr is not needed for remote printing in UXNMR, we do
it here with lp.
uxnmr WILL plot to a remote printer, provided that remote printer has been
installed by cfpp on the remote machine (this installs the correct 'interface'
program). The only functionality you will lose is the ablity to choose the
printer from a list using the right mouse button in edo, just type the name of
the remote printer in edo instead.
I think that plot is very convienient and quick if you get some parameter set
sorted for yourself. Yes I would like a GOOD wysiwyg picture builder (like in
the latest 1D WIN-NMR versions) but I would hate to see the plot functionality
disappear from uxnmr... we need them both.

Graham
