Nico, Desmond,

Thanks you for the responses.  Unfortunately, www.rpm.pbone.net doesn't hold
libXP.so.6 for FC6 and I don't think that I can get the sources for Ted. So
I will try printing to a flat file. I have used that technique in the
distant past and it would have the big advantage that I won't have to search
for libXP.so.6 each time I upgrade the operating system.
