Your options included portrait, but I thought you wanted landscape?

As I pointed out in the snapshot of the documentation on the site that you sent me, it clearly states that

 * "portrait=n"  (please refer back to snapshot of that documentation
   page in my previous email)

is the specified method to tell Gvim that landscape mode is the desired print mode.


The bug was, that vim wouldn't set landscape orientation no matter what you configured in printoptions in the generated postscript file.

Since you questioned the "portrait=n" method, is there a new "landscape=y" method, or is there a different documentation page that I should be referring to instead of the "vimhelp.org" reference?


Where did you find that URL?

That is the URL on the documentation page at

 * https://vimhelp.org/usr_90.txt.html#usr_90.txt

under the heading "FROM A PACKAGE".


The ftp mirror has been retired.

Using the information obtained from

 * https://github.com/vim/vim?tab=readme-ov-file

is the most recent version (v9.1.1163) uploaded to

 * https://github.com/vim/vim/tags

a confirmed functional build?


Also, as a bit of feedback, since Unix is not exactly Linux, or vice-versa, if the code is usable for both environments, may I suggest modifying the references (in documentation) to "Unix/Linux" or "Unix (Linux)" to eliminate confusion for people who think too literally about such things?


Thank you for the above, and for your ongoing contributions to the Gvim project.

Eric
