Description: !Spool sends a file (or series of files) multitaskingly in the desktop to either the serial port or the parallel port. It uses the Block Drivers and so can use serial ports other than the internal one. Support is present for the use of the special printer cable used with Computer Concepts "TurboDrivers" when sending data to the parallel port so that the data appears correctly at the end of the cable.
