* printing with Emacs 21.3 and gsprint under Vista @ 2009-04-01 12:24 Heinz Tuechler 0 siblings, 0 replies; 5+ messages in thread From: Heinz Tuechler @ 2009-04-01 12:24 UTC (permalink / raw) To: help-gnu-emacs Dear All, because of a broken computer I had to change to a new one, which runs under Vista. Under XP I had no problem to print from Emacs 21.3 and gsprint. Now, if I chose postscript print buffer, I see "Printing...done", but nothing happens. Just to prevent more search and trials, may I ask, if it is in principle possible to print from Emacs 21.3 under Vista. Thanks, Heinz ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

If the instructions here: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/PrintingFromEmacs don't help, then follow link "PrintFromBrowser." That method is easier for me. That puts a new item under Menu>Files, "Quick Print (Using Browser)" Also you should probably update to Emacs 22.3. It can be installed right on top of 21.3. It will overlay it with newer files.

Raven, help-gnu-emacs Thank you Ed, In the meantime I followed the instructions, you mentioned and it works. It was my fault not to try them immediately, because I could not understand, why my earlier settings, which worked well under XP, did not the equally under Vista. Long time ago, I considered to update to 22.3. I would like to install it in parallel to 21.3, but I could not find out, how to manage it because both would read the same .emacs configuration file and as far as I remember they would need to be different. In case there is a possibility to make Emacs 22.3 read a configuration file named different or stored in a different directory, I would be happy to know. In any case, thank you for your response.

Just split your .emacs and do something like (cond ( (equal emacs-version "21.3.1") (setq custom-file "~/.emacs-cust-21.3.el")) ( t (setq custom-file "~/.emacs-cust-cvs.el") )) (when (file-exists-p custom-file) (load custom-file))) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
