Re: printing, default printer

[Fred Kiefer]

The main printing change I could find for the last few months was some 
cleanup I did in June 
(http://svn.gna.org/viewcvs/gnustep?view=revision&revision=33252) when 
switching to newer methods for the print panel.
I don't have any idea how this could be causing the issue, but will look 
into it on the weekend, when I hopefully have a bit more time for GNUstep.
OK, I could not resist and had a short look. The problem is that
_finalWritePrintInfo: gets called too soon in _pickedButton:. When we 
call this method the _picked ivar isn't set nor is the _savePath. Maybe 
ti would be sufficient to move this call down just before the stopping 
of the modal loop? I will test that on the weekend...
