Thanks. It always annoyed me that ps-print options cannot be turned
on from the menu bar.
A few comments, based on a very superficial reading.
- The documentation should IMHO be moved into a separate Texinfo
manual. It is unreasonable to have so much useful information in
a commentary as plain text: it lacks indices, cross-references,
and other means of looking up info in an efficient manner.
- The menu-bar items should be put under File->Print, not under
Tools. (The latter was correct for Emacs 19 and 20, but not
anymore.) I also think that the options should be under a
separate submenu, but that's a minor issue.
- The menu-bar menu items should have help text.
- Why doesn't pr-temp-dir use temporary-file-directory if that's
available? The way the code works now, a user will have to
customize both pr-temp-dir and temporary-file-directory, if the
defaults aren't appropriate. Also, why do you DOSify the file
name in pr-temp-dir (as well as many other file names used in the
package)?
- Shouldn't pr-interface be a separate file?
