Check out GETPU() in the UniBasic Commands manual. That should give you
what you need.

I may have asked this before, if so,
We had the same issue converting from RealityX to universe. The spooler menu
on RX was much more user-friendly and listed such helpful options as "pages
printed so far" for the displayed job. So we haven't found a solution,
probably because we do not use the HOLD file method of managing print jobs.

As others pointed out you can use GETPU(). We went a different way and
execute a SETPTR command using the "BANNER" option to actually name the
_HOLD_ item. This will eliminate the renaming step and perhaps with the
right options could eliminate the "editing the printer control

Tell me about it! We came to D3/SB+/AIX 10 years ago from a Wang VS
environment. I don't miss writ
The Wang spooler was probably running directly attached printers (via
serial or parralell interfaces). This would allow the spooler to
"know" much more about the status of a job than the more "modern"
printers that are network attached (and deal with complete print jobs
in one fell swoop). For a
