Printing Problems

One problem with running Eclipse on Linux is that printing doesn't work in the GTK version and the motif version prints ugly. This will work on OS X as well.

To get around this first create two scripts:

#!/bin/sh

# file: fancyPrint.sh

enscript -E --color --fancy-header=emacs $1

and

#!/bin/sh

# file: fancyPrintAll.sh
# change cpp and/or h to the extensions you want or just *

enscript -E --color --fancy-header=emacs $1/*.{cpp,h}

Then you need to add two External Tools:

   Run -> External Tools -> External Tools

In the dialog box do the following:

• Click on 'Program' in the left pane
• Click on 'New' below
• Enter Print in the 'Name' box
• Enter the path to fancyPrint.sh in the 'Location' box
• Click on the 'Variables' button for the 'Arguments' box and choose 'resource_loc'
• Click 'Apply'

Then:

• Click on 'Program' in the left pane
• Click on 'New' below
• Enter Print All in the 'Name' box
• Enter the path to fancyPrintAll.sh in the 'Location' box
• Click on the 'Variables' button for the 'Arguments' box and choose 'project_loc'
• Click 'Apply' and 'Close'

Now to print the current document:

   Run -> External Tools -> Print

To print all the documents in your current project:

   Run -> External Tools -> Print All
