I don’t normally print out the code I write because it just turns out horribly on paper, and you need line numbers on code.
That said, I happened across this command string when a co-worker printed out some code, and I’m happy with the results. It’s pretty slick.
[code]
user@host$ nenscript -2Gr -C yourTextFileOfCode.py
[/code]
I’ll leave it to you to figure out what the cryptic options do, but I will include a screen shot of how it prints.
Now enjoy some nice printouts next time you need to run of 30 copies of that page of example code.
Nenscript is an ascii->postscript formatter. Available for windows and linux.
There are plenty of tools to turn postscript files into pdf files if you need that instead of printing

That horrid html code is my index page… I know I know it’s bad </warning>
