>Description:

	/usr/share/examples/printing/ifhp exits with error code 2 even
	after successfully printing a plan-text document.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Install /usr/share/examples/printing/ifhp in /usr/local/libexec/hpif,
	configure /etc/printcap to use it as an input filter, and then try
	to print a plain-text document.

>Fix:
	
	[Note that the printing section of the handbook has this example
	right--it's just wrong in /usr/share/examples/printing/ifhp.]

	Here's the context diff:
	diff -c /usr/share/examples/printing/ifhp /usr/local/libexec/hpif
	*** /usr/share/examples/printing/ifhp        Sat Oct 17 12:05:19 1998
	--- /usr/local/libexec/hpif     Mon Jan  4 22:52:59 1999
	***************
	*** 26,32 ****
	      #  Plain text or HP/PCL, so just print it directly; print a form
	      #  at the end to eject the last page.
	      #
	!     echo $first_line && cat && printf "\f" && exit 2
	  fi
	  
	  exit 2
	--- 26,32 ----
	      #  Plain text or HP/PCL, so just print it directly; print a form
	      #  at the end to eject the last page.
	      #
	!     echo $first_line && cat && printf "\f" && exit 0
	  fi
	  
	  exit 2

	Note "exit 2" changed to "exit 0".

	Thanks!

	Bob

	I'm a happy FreeBSD user!
