I have just spent about an hour trying to get a printout of the ardupliot code from the Arduino IDE. I cannot get the output to 'word wrap' so that, even using landscape format, some of the comments are truncated.There must be something obvious that I am missing so could somebody enlighten me. I have tried copy&paste into notepad but I then loose the formatting and nice colours.Richard
You need to be a member of diydrones to add comments!
The Arduino IDE is pretty poor regarding this. Try getting Textpad. In the options you can set to show .pde files as C-files, which in turn enables nice syntax highlighting. Also printing goes well. If I'm able to find the right commandline options for the compiler, I might move the full development of Arduino towards Textpad instead of the standard IDE.
Try using a real text or code editor. The arduino environment is horrible for coding more than a few lines. In the preferences select "Use external editor" and pick your favorite code editor. I'm on a Mac using BBedit. Anyone have suggestions for PC users?
