Hi Stephen,
This sounds good to me - nobody has specifically talked about this
before, but I can see why it would be useful occasionally. We should be
able to achieve most of this hopefully through CSS.
Cheers,
David

Has there been any discussion about producing diffs in a printable format?
A few people around work have been asking me for the ability to
occasionally print diffs from codestriker. Of course the simple answer
is that you can using your browser's built in print function. It even
looks pretty good. But there are a few things that would make it more
"printer friendly".
I think this could be done without adding a whole printing module,
just adding a hyperlink to pages called something a bit shorter than
"printer friendly version". People could select this from a
multiple-file diff view or a single file diff view. It would simply
redisplay the current page with the following modifications:
* Make the background pure white. (Diffs don't look much good with
all shading turned off, but it wastes a lot of toner to have
everything shaded in 10% grey.
* Removing excessive header and trailer information.
I was going to work on this myself (because people here at work want it
anyway) and then submit proposed changes back to codestriker, but I
thought I'd check first to find out if this had been discussed before
and if there were strong philosophical views about this being a The
Wrong Thing To Do, or something.
Let me know what you think,
Stephen
