Oh no, I can't. I forgot - you can't get the contents of a custom view by
script. I could try doing the "equivalent" criteria by script, asking you
what "columns" you'd like depending on the type of items, etc. This will be
a lot of work - it may take a while.
I will request that when scripting is extended for custom views, some
provision may be made for this. But the way it prints, whether by script or
when you do it yourself, would probably have to be formatted something like
what the printing is for selected contacts in the Address Book, or else it
would have to be pretty minimal: "Title" [= Subject for Message, Name for
Contact, etc.], Date, and Categories, like the default columns for all-Items
Custom Views. Trying to print with more columns would make a mess: if there
are too many characters to fit in one line, it would wrap around to the next
line. That would look absolutely awful. (There may be a way to interpolate �
marks and truncate long lines. In fact, I'm sure that would have to be
done.)
You're out of luck for now, I'm afraid.
