Ups, it seems to be fixed indeed. Sorry. Never do screenshots myself.

Printing is this stuff that involves paper, right? ;)

Seriously: I played around a bit while ago. For this chess stuff to get 
a decent looking layout IMHO there is no way around LaTeX. I'll however 
rework the TeX backend and make it usable for the average user who just 
installed a "TeX Live". It is on my todo list for quite a while.

Not for the next release though. In the end you'll just have a nice PDF 
and no need to fiddle out what TeX is at all, except that you needed to 
install this funny thing called TeX Live which needs some bytes on your 
hard disk. This will be quite close to a print function.

In what respect? It copies the position to the clipboard.

No. I can't crossread video but I can crossread text. (=> Video is waste 
of time.)

In FireFox. fen for the shortcut just created for the bookmark, 
Shift-Ins inserts the current clipboard text. (Is it ctrl-v? I'm used to 
SAA here.)
