TxtPrint homepage

Please note!
This page will be removed shortly.
I am not developing TxtPrint any more. If there is anyone that would
like to continue developing TxtPrint, please do so.
If you have questions, mail me at the address provided on the bottom
of the page.

Background
TxtPrint is a small application I have written myself. It's function is similar to
the Unix enscript application. I needed a Windows application to print source
code in an efficient manner using features such as two column printing,
page numbering, date/time in the header and so on.
Unfortunately there existed no such application that was released as
freeware, so I started to write my own application, and here it is!

Features
TxtPrint is a small application designed mainly for one purpose: Printing out text files.
By numerous settings, you will have precise control over the output. TxtPrint can
be used to print all kinds of text files, but I think programmers printing out source code
will appreciate the features most.
The main advantage with TxtPrint compared to standard text editors is the ability to
divide the page in several columns and rows. This is very useful for saving paper and
getting more text on a single paper.
An additional feature is to handle files with different file extensions differently. You can
for example define that files with a certain file extension always should be printed using
a predefined tab spacing.

TxtPrint works with Windows NT, Windows 95 and other Win32 enviroments.

TxtPrint is released as freeware, so you don't have to pay anything
for it. However, this does not mean that free support or anything like
that is included.
There are two language versions of the program: English and Swedish.
In addition to the application, you may also need some or all of the dll files
found below. Copy them to your Windows system directory.
Version 1.0 is dated May 2, 1998.

Source Code
I have received a lot of requests for new features, and a few requests to at least
release the source code to TxtPrint. I will probably not release any new versions
of TxtPrint and have therefore decided to release the source code to the public domain.
Anyone is free to download and modify the source code, and distribute modified executables.
