I was just working on a large script using the built in editor, and after getting myself all confuzzled, I went to print the script for a better view of it all, and realized that there was no internal print option for the editor. I don't know how many have come across it, but I just thought it would be a useful addition to a future release.

I have noticed this in past, and the work-around that I use, is to simply call up the script file in a word processor (notepad, wordpad, Microsoft Word, Word Perfect, etc.) then print from there.
If you get a message indicating the the software needs to know what type of document the file is, use the DOS Text option.

If that option isn't there -- Get a better word processor.

That's a good workaround, but I agree that having print built in would be a good feature.

This feature would be useful indeed. I have strained my eyes using the editor just the text is on the screen. I hadn't thought of printing it out, but that would be a great idea. I think this should be added in future versions.
