Re: Getting Gvim print button to print in landscape mode ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/MIRRORS

Thank you,Christian, for replying.


However, the reference provided gives no different response to /what I 
already have configured/:

So ... are you saying that *was* a bug? ... and that it is *now* fixed 
in the never version?

OR ... is that a bug in the *documentation*, and that there is *NO* such 
functionality?


Note that the URL

  * http://www.vim.org/binaries.html

tries to take me to *SourceForge*, where it fails:


Also, attempting to use Filezilla to reach, both,

  * ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/MIRRORS
  * ftp://ftp.vim.org/

resulted in the same *error*:


Please note that my computer is operating under

  * UbuntuMATE Release *22.04.5 LTS* (Jammy Jellyfish) *64-bit*

Thank you,
