  Modified files:
    gtk                  print_dlg.c 
  Log:
  On Win32, a GUI application apparently can't use "popen()" (it
  "returns an invalid file handle, if used in a Windows program,
  that will cause the program to hang indefinitely"), so we can't
  use a pipe to a print command to print to a printer.
  
  Eventually, we should try to use the native Win32 printing API
  for this (and also use various UNIX printing APIs, when present?).
  
  For now, we support only printing to a file in Windows.
