Re: [Kdiff3-user] printing diffs

[Joachim E. <joa...@gm...>]

Hi David,

Printing is currently not worked on.

- As you point out printing only areas that are 
different/relevant/user-defined is very important. This is the biggest thing 
because it affects the whole design.
- Otherwise it will need a print dialog and manager that coordinates the 
printing.
- The drawing is currently done in a widget, but they need to be extended, so 
they can also draw to a printer-device instead.
- Some people also want printing of the merge output.
- Some people also want printing of the directory view.

Cheers,
Joachim
