Hello Robert,
I would like to test this new add-on very much, but I haven't been able to
install it with g.extension as explained here:
https://grass.osgeo.org/grass73/manuals/g.extension.html for the case of
repositories other than SVN. This is the command I'm using:
g.extension m.printws url=
github.com/kuszinger/giscomgrass7addons/tree/master/m.printws
Fetching <m.printws> from
<
https://github.com/kuszinger/giscomgrass7addons/tree/master/m.printws/archive/master.zip
>
(be patient)...
ERROR: Extension <m.printws> not found
(I'm using a freshly recompiled grass73 - r69069M under Linux-Fedora24)
Am I using g.extension properly? Any ideas?
Best,
Vero

> Hi all,

> I've created a new python script which generates:

> - quick printout (pdf) from workspace definitions
> - supports multiple display definitions in one workspace ( = multiple
> printouts in one run)
> - UTF-8 text could also be printed (ps.map supports only latin1, this
> was the initial reason to create alternative print method)
>
> known major issues:

> - barscale and northarrow positioning should be revised in the
> respective d.* modules
> - ImageMagick dependency should be eliminated longer term
> - regexp processing of workspace files instead of formal XML processing
> - needs more calibration on txt/symbol resizing according to printout
> dpi change

> This module is NOT for professional prints but for quick&dirty and
> hopefully comfortable
> printout making.

> Tested under:
>
> - Linux: 7.0.4,7.2 latest, 7.3 weekly snapshot
> - Windows: 7.3 binary OSGeo4W
