djscript - A text formatter for the HP DeskJet printer.

djscript [Options][<fil>...]

The tool's purpose is to make better use of the HP DeskJet's text modes. On one hand djscript enables the user to easily choose the different text modes of the DeskJet. On the other hand there are some add-ons supposed to make some if these modes really useful.
