Taking into account all those options, some bits from the
Wiki and other bits from the web GNUmed can now print via:

- gtklp
- Windows IE
- Windows Acrobat Reader
- Windows gsprint.exe
- platform os.startfile()
- generic gm-print_doc

(only gm-print_doc has been tested so far).

Unless a preferred printing API is configured (for which
there currently is nothing implemented yet) it will try each
where appropriate.
