     I am looking to be able to print HTML documents from a linux
command line via scripts (without user intervention) and I was wondering
if you know of any tool that may do this. I have looked around the web
for printing with Linux, but pretty much everything I find is for
setting up printing, not actually doing the printing. I can convert the
HTML if another tool will do that in the script. I also require that
all the graphics, formatting, etc... be maintained.

     A second question I have concerns the hard drive. Is there a
compression program that works via the operating system to compress all
stored files and expand them as they are used similar to the Compress
option of Microsoft Windows? I am using a computer for the HTML
documents that does not have a lot of hard drive space, and I would like
to take advantage of the compression tools when storing the documents as
text compresses really well. I need the tool to work without scripting
though as people will be trying to view the documents via a normal web
browser at times as well.
