		These commands are for text files only!!! See below for PDFs.
		BASIC:		lpr -P 115 yourfile.c
		FANCY:		enscript -d 115 -M Letter -C -T 3 yourfile.c
		GREEN:		a2ps -P 115 --line-numbers=1 -T 3 yourfile.c (???)
	PDFs
		Never use lpr on a PDF from the console!!! Never!!! Ever!!!
		BASIC:		xpdf
		PRINT:		Hit button in xpdf then use command lpr -P 115.
		SLIDES:		evince
		PRINT:		acroread
	PROFILING
		Tools for first analyzing and then optimizing program execution.
		TIMING:		time ./a.out
		MEMORY:		memusage -p filename.png ./a.out
		UTILITY:		gcc -pg yourfile.c
				./a.out
				gprof -b
