[Microbit-Python] Hard copy of script files

[Michael]

Hi,


More faff route that leaves everything still pretty formatted with colours
(and doesn't use any particularly special tools :) ):

1. Select the program you want to print.
2. Open pastebin.com in a browser
3. Paste your program into the obvious box.
4. Below the pastebox, select "python" for syntaxt highlighting
5. Select "unlisted" (or private if you signin)
6. Hit submit
7. See your pretty printed program. You could hit print at this stage.
8. Select just your pretty printed program in the browser, and hit copy.
9. In open office or word, paste.
10. Print. (or export as PDF and print)

(I'd personally just copy into kate and hit "print", but I'm guessing
you're not using Linux)
