Bug#75199: apsfilter bugs, wishes, and improvements

[Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>]

  I concur with the following and modified /etc/printcap as Hugo said.
  apsfilter should move the auto-mono/lp entry first. Unless, of
  course, this is a bug in lprng not using the correct default.

    WISHLIST
	The default install of apsfilter generates a printcap file with the ascii print
	queue first, followed by the lp auto queue second. I dont know why but an lpr command
	with no -Pauto will take the first entry, instead of the default entry lp. This is
	annoying since you would think that an lpr with no -P option should default to the auto
	mode lp queue. In this way a user could simply type the command "lpr anyfile" and the
	apsfilter would just print it if it recognized the format. To my way of thinking
	this is the desired behaviour. I got this to work by putting the lp section first.
	So my printcap is
