printing

[Jim Locker]

Are there any working examples of printing? The various objects are documented and the heirarchy is apparent, but it would be a lot simpler if there was a working example to start from. I need to print both images and text. I have looked through the examples and samples, and didn’t find anything that did this.

Hi Jim,

I will see if I have anything. The system has a lot of power, so one
example probably won't do it for the long run, but one might get you
started.

As it happens, there is a printformlib.sml project that is going to be
part of the next release. It will come as full source code with sample
programs that exercise its functions: printwxform(), printtext(), and
printrecord().

Ciao, Neil
