Not sure what kind of printing you are expecting, but echo(), warn(), and error() all print to the console. (hit "~" key, and see console.log) There is a screen capture function. See screenshot.cs file

Hi ALex, I was talking about printing in a printer
just text output, nothing fancy.
Search only spots one thread for TGE :(

Ah, I haven't seen anything like that either. Maybe launch an .html file and use javascript to run the print function in user's web browser?

Actually my hopes are in making a win32 only simple wrapper
to lauch, just don't want to reinvent the wheel again...

Yeah that's why I suggested launching the file to print in a web browser. Then the user can do all the usual stuff like select printer, resize font, orientation, etc.
