a2ps offers to the programmer an access to its generating routines.
This section documents the API.
But since this section is empty, or almost, if I were you, I would go in
contrib/sample to see how it works...
- Function: struct a2ps_job * a2ps_job_new (void)
-
Build a new storage unit for the library.
- Function: void a2ps_read_sys_config (struct a2ps_job * job)
-
Set job with the default settings defined in the configuration
file of the system.
- Function: void a2ps_read_config (struct a2ps_job * job, char * path, char * filename)
-
Set job with the default settings defined in the configuration
file `path/filename'. path can be
NULL,
filename cannot.
A print job should be seen as associated to a single output.
- Function: void a2ps_open_output_session (struct a2ps_job * job)
-
Initialize job for a new print job.
- Function: void a2ps_close_output_session (struct a2ps_job * job)
-
Closes the current print job, and sends the output.
A file job should be seen as a single input.
- Function: void a2ps_new_input_session (struct a2ps_job * job, char * name)
-
Create and open a new file job in job. name can be
NULL, in which case its name is defaulted to that of
stdin.
- Function: void a2ps_close_input_session (struct a2ps_job * job)
-
End the current input session.
These are the functions to be used to send content to liba2ps.
- Function: void a2ps_print_char (struct a2ps_job * job, unsigned char c, face_t face)
-
Print the char c in face in job.
- Function: void a2ps_print_string (struct a2ps_job * job, unsigned char * string, face_t face)
-
Print the
C string string in face in job.
- Function: void a2ps_print_buffer (struct a2ps_job * job, unsigned char * buffer, size_t len, face_t face)
-
Print the len first characters contained in buffer with
face into job.
