Okay, I got jws to work. The lp command line is something like:
lp -dmeadow "-tJava WorkShop Help Table of Contents"
Alarmingly, the getopts shell builtin seems to process this line as if
it were:
lp -dmeadow -tJava WorkShop Help Table of Contents
which of course doesn't work (it tries to print five files with names
"WorkShop", "Help", "Table", etc.).
So, we need to:
* Fix /usr/athena/bin/lp, somehow
* Install a /usr/bin/lp symlink in the release
