I'm on batter with a very bad network connection, so apologies for
the brief reply. I'd probably go with system dialogs, rather than
using something written in SDL. That is, either OS-specific code,
or, as you suggested, GTK+. Or perhaps Qt or wxWidgets.
On OS X, BeOS (I believe) and Windows, we have OS-specific code for bringing
up printer dialogs. (On Linux, I use a system() or popen() command to
execute an external tool, such as "kprinter" or "xprinter".)
Thanks and good luck!
