...I'm missing something! In OS9, you opened a window and went to File/Print Window to print the contents of a window. How do you do that in Leopard?
Got a tip for us?

Nope. If the window is open with nothing selected within it, 'print' is greyed out. If something is selected, print is accessible but just prints out the selected file(s)

What app are you talking about? In every app I open, the Print option is not grayed out, even if you don't click on anything in the window.
The OP said nothing about file names or folders. How Do I Print A File List (finder)

I want to print the contents of a folder window from the Finder as a listing, including filename, file size, date modified etc. In OS9, there was a 'print window' option, OS X doesn't appear to be able to do this.

I have looked for this too and the only workaround I found was making screenshots of the simple Finder window.
Btw, your thread title is really non-descript, future generations might be looking for the same and a descriptive thread title could help finding it.

You can't seriously be telling me that the only way to do this is through Terminal? You can't be serious...

No, if you read the threads, you'll see many methods, including the app I posted a link to.
Well, I tried the copy and paste thing, but all is does is copy the filenames; looks like it's down to a 3rd party app, then! Does 10.6 enable direct window printing? Will 10.7...? At least I've just tried to do the same on a Windows 7 machine - looks like you can't do it on there either, although I might have been looking in the wrong place. Ah well...
