We have SCO Xenix 2.2.3 (386) on an Olivetti M380 PC (80386 system),
and want to adress the printer reset signal, or read the paper-out
signal on the Centronics parallel interface on the system board.
This would be no problem in DOS, but I would like to know how to do it
from a Xenix C program. Is there any ioctl call to control this?
I have looked in the manual, but couldn't find a hint.
Any suggestions? Please ....
