Description quartz quartz CLA 2002-10-31 12:20:55 EST
Printing is awfull...
-should allow persistent setup
-should not highlight selected line
-should not use editor color but its own colors
-should allow for 3 grey coloring (black, darkgray, lightgray)
-should allow for plain black & white text, maybe with bold and/or italic on
selected types (keyword, identifiers)
-should allow for line numbers, setup of margins, landscape mode

I also like using high-resolution with small font about 5 points, printing
on 2 columns. I can see A LOT of code on a simgle page. Very boring to handle
24 pages that could fit in 4

This would be extremely useful.  I like to code with a black background, but
when I go to print the printer covers the paper with a black block and then
prints the text in grayscale.  This is horrible because I would rather just
print in black and white (or a small gray scale).  For this reason printing in
Eclipse is unusable and I have to export my code to print.  Heck, Notepad does a
better job at printing my code then Eclipse does.

I also agree with quartz12h in that line numbers and smaller fonts would be
extremely well received.
