It says that some PCL printers of HP are supported. I wonder if ESC/P,
PC-PR, LIPS, etc. of Canon and others at hand supported.

I don't know. You must try it. Please note that 0.97 has a bug in PCL
generation, please get the latest CVS snapshot at

Could you please do that by Friday? Adding to the library means adding
the necessary flags and hooks, and possibly updating the
documentation.
If you can do that and please send me patch files (diff -u
), it would be great. Otherwise I'll do it, but not for this
release for lack of time (I'll still add your stuff in the "contrib"
directory).

Incorporating patches is not a problem, usually conflicts are easily
resolved by hand.

Subject: [barcode] Porting to windows
Message-ID: <3C7CF5D0.5B5CE2F0@ship.ie>
Hi,
We have a setup where the barcode works fine like this:
The original (free BSD code) plus C program set up under
Unix to generate barcodes on a printer.
Then this was moved to another Unix machine,
a file server, for mostly windows machines
The a dialogue interface was made where the windows machines
can get a bar-code menu up and print barcodes locally, where
the execution of the program takes place at the server.
Problem: Is there any way to get this running on a stand alone
standard PC running under windows?
Sten

Well, assuming there's someone crazy enough _wanting_ to run it on windows
;), there are lot of possibilities. One is to run GNU/Linux or some other
good operating system inside windows using VMware, other is to use Cygwin
[http://www.redhat.com, I believe] which should allow porting Barcode
easily to windows (probably just by recompiling--haven't tried though).
Porting Barcode to run on windows without any extra packages shouldn't be
too difficult either, if one can just work around the lacking features and
tools of the OS.

This header makes me suspect you are not referring to GNU barcode
specifically. Also, I don't think all experts in generic barcode
issues are here (someone else exists, I suspect :)
Tukka Toivonen gives the right answer. Moreover, the README says:
The MS-Windows port is maintained at:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/barcode.htm
To my knowledge this is a cygwin recompilation without significant
changes. But, again, you refer to other code, it seems.
