I am using a print filter that can use options, but there seems to be
no way to pass arbitrary options to print filters with lpr. So I hacked
lpr/lpd to pass options to the filter with a -Z flag.
I put a patch at http://www.jakemsr.com/openbsd/patches/lpr-options.diff
if anyone else is interested in such functionality. (manpages are patched
too :)
I also noticed that lpr(1) and lpd(8) bogusly Xr plot and/or cifplot.
(I changed the Xr's to Em's in the above patch.)
