This is a quick and dirty trick to print html under Windows without any prompt dialog. It requires optcl and was widely inspired by RS's COM on! - a tiny web browser.
# load optcl (must be after Tk)
package require Tk
package require optcl
# Proc to call to print a file
proc printhtm {f} {
if {![file exists $f]} {return 0}
if {![info exists ::htm]} {
catch {::optcl::new -window .htm Shell.Explorer.2} ::htm
}
if {![catch {$::htm Navigate [file nativename [file normalize $f]]}]} {
update
after 2500
if {![catch {$::htm ExecWB "OLECMDID_PRINT" "OLECMDEXECOPT_DONTPROMPTUSER"}]} {
return 1
}
}
return 0
}
