Nice. Thanks for playing with this. I dug myself into a terrible pit with this last night. To be honest there are still subtle things I really don't understand. I tried putting sleep commands in a perl script because I guessed it was a print before draw type problem, but I got into a mess with the syntax again. The plan was to fork a load of Pd instances in parallel because it was taking a long time to do each print. Will play around with this some more and see what I get.
Cheers,
Andy

wait isn't mean what I thought it was, don't know why it worked
but it seems to work ok without it - and I worked out how to close

I tried to make this into a sh-script, but while it prints okay, it only generates an "empty" ps-file: the ps-file isn't empty, but
the patch it shows is.Anyway, attached also is the sh-script that doesn't work correctly. Any ideas for a fix?
same here - possibly the patch gets printed before it is drawn??
with the 'wait' these work for me - with printer.pd already open in
pd, try:pdprint2.sh name /path/to/directory
