Printing from sublime

@bbarrill
No worries; thanks for your time.

I don't like to give up, but there's nothing else I can do at the moment without input from others.

I've made another attempt by adding

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/env python # and..
/usr/bin/lp

if anyone is will to give it a go in osx

Please can someone with OSX test my QuickPrint feature briefly and let me know if it succeeds. Andy.

Another vote for print support.

Yikes.

I tried Sublime for a month, decided I liked it, paid for it... then needed to print something.

Surprise! This application does not print.

This sours the deal but doesn't kill it. Sublime Text 2 is still an excellent addition to my library, but... wow. That's a pretty basic feature. I expect I am among the masses taking that for granted.

Please consider making this a priority.

Thanks.

I don't know if native support for printing will ever be added to Sublime Text. Maybe in version 3 ... But for the rare occasions I need it, this plugin works well enough: SublimePrint. I first created it as a quick hack last april. It was then substantially extended by Kai Ellinger a few months ago, and again cleaned up by me just now. It has been submitted to package control, but you can get it directly from https://github.com/svenax/SublimePrint until gets is added. Give it a shot.

+1 for simple printing! Would be great even just to produce PDF pages of code. Right now there is no way from within Sublime to do this relatively basic task.

+1, I was just recommended Sublime and the first feature I was going to use, printing in color after importing a piece of code is not implemented, so holding a little bit before migrating here for now.

Can you please update the thread when this gets implemented so I have another look?

Cheers.

I just dropped $70 on what I had chosen as THE text editor in my tool set based on rave reviews and an impressive trial run. Obviously the trial didn't last long enough. Seriously, how hard is it to print text to a printer? I don't even need it to be syntax highlighted or anything. Oh, I get it...this is one of those jokes you play on the new guy. Ha, good one guys. You really had me going there. Now can I have the real version of the tool I just paid for?

[wdburgdorf]

You must be joking. Is there anyone who writes text and never needs to print it? Do I really have to switch to another editor just to print the few lines that I need to print?
Is there any other editor that doesn't print? Or is this some sort of religious thing, like single buttoned mouses?

Ahem, well, sorry about the rant. Just my +1.
