Well, I'm already using the PNG libraries to save files, so rather than write my own PPM code (which I agree is insanely easy, I've done it for some dynamic image generation on the web), I just decided to stick another command in the chain. How hard is it to write direct postscript? Also, has anyone tried setting printcommand to "kprinter" (or whatever that KDE print dialog is)? -bill! _______________________________________________ Tuxpaint-dev mailing list [email protected] http://tux4kids.net/mailman/listinfo/tuxpaint-dev
