Usage

Adds a new command, :BrowserPrint, which will send the contents of the current buffer to a new browser window (or tab) in HTML, preserving the current font, formatting, and encoding.

Just run :BrowserPrint, and watch the magic.

Why?

Printing from MacVim opens a PDF in Preview, with monospace font and the encoding completely lost. Other GUI vims may have similar problems. This is a workaround that relies on HTML and a decent web browser to preserve the formatting nicely.

The idea is to send it to the browser, then use the browser's built-in print functionality.

Limitations

• Requires Python support in Vim
• Should work on Windows/Linux but not tested (yet!)
• HTML content in the file will screw up the output as it isn't escaped
