Abstract: This hack just lets you print pd files at Peach print servers using the CommandTool rather than the Chat tool. The default behavior is to not fork so when it returns your file should have been printed. This is useful for serializing actions such as local expansions (using PeachExpand for instance) followed by remote prints. The STOP button may take some time since it tries to remove the print request from the servers' queue. There is also a procedure interface.
