I'm using Galileo on Suse 11.2 and Windows Vista, and Helios on Ubuntu. In Windows environment, I can print a selection of my code. On both Linux systems however, I cannot print a selection. I don't have the "selection" option when I select File->Print (only "All Pages" and "Pages" ; even "Current Page" is grayed out). Is this a problem in Eclipse or a configuration problem of my Linux environments ? Or a combination of both ? Or a problem of the printer driver ?
----
meanwhile, I noticed that I can print a selection from e.g. the KWrite editor on the Suse server. So, it looks like this is not a problem of the OS or the printer driver, is it ?

Ah! Yes, I see what you mean now (just checked on Helios on Ubuntu).
I also checked gedit and Firefox. With firefox the "Print" dialog
comes up with 5 tabs, one of which is "Options" and that's where the
selection option is. gedit comes up with 5 tabs too, the 5th one being
"Text Editor" but doesn't give that option. Eclipse only gives 4 tabs;
General, Page Setup, Job and Advanced. It looks to me like it's to do
with the default settings of the Linux printer driver compared to the
windows one.
