[chirp_users] Print Function
Hi folks:
What's the possibility of having a simple "PRINT" function added to the programme?
It would come in handy to enable a printout of frequencies and settings.
It's nice to have a hard copy, just in case of a system crash.

Export to CSV and then you manage the printout in whatever way you want (plus, you have a backup of your settings)

Hi Ross,
If you want an exact printout the way Chirp displays the page, the easiest way is to snapshot your screen, and then print the image. From linux this can be done with a myriad of different tools:
import (included on my linux distros, part of ImageMagick) ksnapshot (included with the KDE desktop manager) Prt-Scn (using the keyboard Print-Screen button from GNOME) Shutter (the gold-standard app for Ubuntu users)
Or, if you are still stuck with a proprietary system (Windows), you could always hold shift->Print-Screen which will put the image in the paste buffer, then start paint and paste your image into paint. Then print from paint.

Tnx guys.
Since I'm Windows bound, I'll just print the .csv file ; > ))
That's easiest for me and good enough for a hard copy.
Tnx again.
