@b(Purpose:)@\The PRNTMETA command takes a GKS metafile format
graphics file (logical device METAFIL)
and graphs it on whatever device is assigned
to logical device name PRINTER (by default, the IBM Graphics printer).
PRNTMETA should only be executed on AT workstations that have graphics
printers directly connected to them.  

@b(Format:)@\PRNTMETA [@i(d:)][@i(path)]@i(filename)

@b(Type:)@\External, MIT Project Athena

@b(Remarks:)@\@multiple{@i(filename) must be a GKS metafile format file
(created by outputting to a workstation of type METAFIL).

PRNTMETA is a stop-gap measure to make it possible for people to
print graphics files until we have a more transparent way of
doing it.  You should only run PRNTMETA on an AT that has an IBM
Graphics printer attached to it.  The general idea is that
to get graphics output your program should write its output to a
GKS metafile.  Once the file is created, you can print it on
the local workstation, @i(if it has a graphics printer attached
directly to it) by just typing PRNTMETA @i(filename).  If there
is no graphics printer attached to the AT, you should copy the
metafile to floppy disk, take the disk to an AT that does
have a graphics printer, and print the file with the PRNTMETA
command on that workstation.
