YEAH!!!.  I have gone as far as getting the source & starting to pour
through it to figure out how to make whfc work with command line args.

I come from the *nix world, and even setting my Windoze boxen up  at
times is a tax for me.

I even said "why do we need whfc", shouldn't the *nix "sendfax" command
JUST COMPILE???  Well, silly me of course...

Here's a vote to have a command line whfc similar to sendfax.

Thanks for the effort put into whfc.   I can't seem to get the new 
version with the printer monitor working, but I only had one attempt
at it.  I need to sit down & re-do it, taking my time to make sure I
don't miss any steps...., but the old one serves my minimal ( currently )
purposes. 

Thanks again,
