Strange that "locate magicfilter" > did not show that. And I did run periodic and weekly. I think Mike made a typo when he wrote "magicfilter should install /usr/bin/magicfilter". Magicfilter should/would have been put in /usr/local/bin (not in /usr/bin) either as a binary or a symlink to something in /usr/local/libexec/magicfilter. I haven't used it in a long time, so i do not know what kind of file it will be in /usr/local/bin. (I have a PS printer; enscript (from ports) works wonderfully. If i were to have a non-PS printer, i would definitely been using magicfilter in place of disgustingly overweight apsfilter, IM-Not-So-HO.) - parv --
