Type: Bug Fix Advisory
Severity: N/A
Issued on: 2008-05-21

Details

An updated enscript package that fixes a bug is now available.

GNU enscript is a free replacement for Adobe's Enscript program. Enscript
converts ASCII files to PostScript(TM) and spools generated PostScript
output to the specified printer or saves it to a file. Enscript can be
extended to handle different output media and includes many options for
customizing printouts.

This update corrects a bug that caused enscript to write a three-line
header rather than a one-line header.

Users are advised to upgrade to this updated enscript package, which
resolves this issue.
