 * Stuff that slows the transmission of jobs to PostScript printers. ONLY use it
 * if you appear to be having trouble with flow control. The idea is simple - only
 * send a significant amount of data when we're certain the printer is in the
 * WAITING state. Depends on receiving status messages and only works when the
 * program is run as a single process. What's done should stop printer generated
 * XOFFs - provided our input buffer (ie. blocksize) is sufficiently small. Was
 * originally included in the postio.tmp directory, but can now be requested with
 * the -S option. Considered eliminating this code, but some printers still depend
 * on it. In particular Datakit connections made using Datakit PVCs and DACUs seem
 * to have the most problems. Much of the new stuff that was added can't work when
 * you use this code and will be automatically disabled.
