1. Login to your vincent account.

2. ftp to popeye.cs.iastate.edu 

3. Enter your CS username and password.

4. Change to the cs228 WWW directory.

5. Get the coverpage.ps file using ftp in ascii mode.

If you are using a workstation capable of X applications, you can
preview your printout using gs.  (on vincent: add ghost, then 
gs filename.ps) 
 
It takes the Computation Center a little while to get the printouts up
to your bin.  It usually takes them around 15 to 20 minutes.

If you don't know your bin number, enter the following at the vincent
prompt:

vincent% echo $BIN
324

That's your bin number in Durham 139 where you can pick up your 
printouts.

Aside from postscript stuff, I printout other files over on the laser
printer because I like the quality of output better than the line 
printers over in Atanasoff 115/116.  One handy thing I have found for
finding bugs in program code is to print out my code with line numbers.
The following works on vincent and the CS machines:

shazam:~> nl -ba someFile.C | lpr -Plp2

I like lp2's output better.

*disclaimer:  This works for ME.  If you end up printing out 15 pages
of garbage because you forgot the -D option or something, don't blame
me.  You can always get vincent help form the project vincent help room.
