     NAME
          ripsock - drive a PostScript rip via a TCP/IP socket

     SYNOPSIS
          /usr/etc/appletalk/ripscock [ -D ] [ -h hostname ] [ -p port
          ] [ -s servicename ] [ -w waittime ]

     DESCRIPTION
          The ripsock program accepts data from stdin ands sends it to
          the specified TCP/IP socket.  Its purpose is to send the
          output of a spooler to a RIP that accepts data that way
          without ever hitting disk.   This filter is designed to be
          called from a "File/Preview" print queue. The flags are
          defined as follows:

          -h   specifies the host to send the job to.  The default is
               the local host.

          -s   defines the name of the service (as specified in
               /etc/services) to be used.  Defaults to "dps".  If a
               port is specified, the service name is ignored.

          -p   defines the port number of the service.

          -w   supplies the time in seconds to wait after sending the
               data to the RIP for feedback from it.  The default is
               15.

          -D   turns on debugging about sending data.
