EZSPL ("easy spool"), originally developed by MicroSabio as a front-end to the AMOS spooler, provides some printing-related convenience features such as printer selection menus and file preview. The A-Shell version of EZSPL is quite similar to the AMOS version, but with some limitations and some extensions. Perhaps most importantly for those not interested in these features, they remain silent and hidden unless you go out of your way to activate them. Such people may safely ignore EZSPL. For those that are interested, this section briefly describes how EZSPL is configured under A-Shell.
EZSPL is hooked into the front end of the spooler interface by substituting for SPOOL. This is accomplished through the subroutine ALIASsp facility within miame.ini. In fact, A-Shell does not contain an ordinary SPOOL subroutine, so you have to use the EZSPL version. However, as mentioned above, EZSPL acts just like the ordinary one unless you create the necessary configuration files.
