That is verys interesting. I was only aware of special variables set 
by the TurboDrivers that allowed applications to detect whether the 
drivers are currently separating themselves, which would allow 
applications to print correct separations for full colour bitmaps even 
through the RISC OS 3.1 256 colour printing system. I was not aware of 
any solution for text and shape colours. How does it work?

As you are probably aware, the whole thing originated on this list a 
couple of months ago. After some discussions, John Tytgat and me have 
decided to go for it. That was many months ago already, but 
unfortunately, getting hold of the sources and sorting out the 
paperwork took rather a lot longer than expected. Hopefully, we will 
officially announce the project soon and ask for donation pledges as 
for Gimp-Print.
