I hope you find a way to format the reference in a way that one can print it out without cut-off text. It's a bit annoying.

Cheers

@REAS I think this is a good idea, to have a print-specific CSS stylesheet that nicely formats the reference page content. In its simplest form, this would be a few lines of CSS that says "when printing, hide the site header and nav column, so only the main content prints." It's easy to implement, and is helpful on the rare occasion when someone wants to print a page. Of course, I think it would be up to @amongiants to implement.

@alignedleft I'll reopen this and mark it as an enhancement. We have some important things to add/fix and I always worry about losing focus.

OK, that's done. Like I say, it's not overly tested, but it seems OK on new browsers. Also, I'm no good on PHP so I can't add it to the pages. I doubt that it would be wonderful on some of your more advanced pages: it makes a mess of http://hello.processing.org/editor/ although I doubt anyone was printing that anyway.
