(find-buffer-file-type-coding-system): Use default-buffer-file-coding-system when file doesn't exist (and isn't covered by a special case) instead of forcing undecided-dos against the user's wishes. (direct-print-region-helper): New function based on direct-print-region-function; sends data to specified printer port without further translation. Recognize and handle specially the standard `print' and `nprint' programs, as well as `lpr' and similar programs. Only write directly to the printer port if no print program is specified. Work around a bug in Windows 9x affecting Win32 version of Emacs by invoking command.com to write to the printer port instead of writing directly. (direct-print-region-function): Use direct-print-region-helper to do most of the work. (direct-ps-print-region-function): New function; analogue of direct-print-region-function for ps-print. (ps-lpr-command): Comment out setq; leave as example usage. (ps-lpr-switches): Ditto.

We have bound this manual using a new @dfn{lay-flat} binding
technology.  This type of binding allows you to open a soft cover book
so that it ``lays flat'' on a table without creasing the binding.

In order to make the book lay flat properly, you need to ``crack'' the
binding.  To do this, divide the book into two sections and bend it so
that the front and back covers meet.  Do not worry; the pages are
sewn and glued to the binding, and will not fall out easily.
The outer cardboard binding itself is designed so that it will not
break or crease as an ordinary paperback binding will.  Bend the book
several times in this manner, dividing it in a different place each
time and pressing the pages flat and open.  With use, the binding will
become flexible and the pages will lay flat without needing to be
pushed or held down.
