Hmmmm... interesting... Certainly something to think about..

Do you do this via the GDK interface, or to you do use a separate API?
I haven't seen a way to get GDK to output PS, so we've got stuff like:
if (printing)
// Generate PostScript
else
// Draw the screen using GDK
It would be nice if it automagically generated Postscript, but I seem to
recall that the higher-level Canvas(es) need to be used to get PS out.
(One can always hope though! ;-)
