passing memo text to faxspool/faxmemo/make.coverpg

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

I use Lyx to create documents in TeX and PS.  It has a fax function where o=
ne
can specify the recipient, telephone number, and some comments to be added =
to a
cover page.  These are passed to a fax command specified in the Lyx rc file.

The problem is that the comments data is passed as a command line string, n=
ot
passed in a file as faxspool/faxmemo/make.coverpg expect.

Is does anyone have any patches to these scripts to allow the memo to be pa=
ssed
as a string as opposed to a file name?

I am having a hard time figuring out which script would be the best one to
modify to do this.

Thanks!
