in the depths of the Macintosh Technical Notes Hypercard stack V3.1.
Option-shift-click will cause it to emit a characteristic Moof! or !fooM

with a LaserWriter selected and click on the Options button. It also
lurks in other Mac printer drivers, notably those for the
now-discontinued Style Writers.
