CUPS Commands v3 (cups-commands)

Version Apache 2.0 Build and Test Coverity Scan LGTM Grade

Note: This project will be merged with the "cups-local" project. Right now all of this code should be considered alpha-quality for testing purposes only!

The CUPS Commands provide the standard CUPS user and administrative commands such as "lp", "cancel", "lpoptions", and "lpadmin". This project is part of OpenPrinting's CUPS 3.0 development, which will provide a 100% driverless printing system for Unix®-like operating systems.
