4.6 Your Shortcuts
==================

You can define some kind of 'Macro Options' which stand for a set of
options.

 -- Configuration Setting: UserOption: SHORTCUT OPTIONS...
     Define the SHORTCUT to be the list of OPTIONS....  When a2ps is
     called with '-=SHORTCUT' (or '--user-option=SHORTCUT'), consider
     the list of OPTIONS....

   Examples are
     # This emulates a line printer: no features at all
     # call a2ps -=lp to use it
     UserOption: lp -1m --pretty-print=plain -B --borders=no

     # When printing mail, I want to use the right style sheet with strong
     # highlight level, and stripping `useless' headers.
     UserOption: mail -Email -g --strip=1
