Hi,
For what it is worth:
I noticed that ps-print-buffer doesn't work for me in emacs-26,
though it is fine in emacs-25.
(Actually, this has been true for at least a few weeks, but
e.g. it is true for a fairly recent compile of 26.0.50.)
Symptom:
start emacs (/usr/local/bin/emacs-26) via:
emacs-26 -Q
Then
C-u M-x ps-print-buffer <RET> ~/Desktop/foo.ps <RET>
yields a skeletal postscript file foo.ps with no content, no
matter the buffer content that should have been printed.
I diffed ....share/emacs/26.0.50/lisp/ps-print.el.gz
with ....share/emacs/25.2.50/lisp/ps-print.el.gz
and more-or-less the only difference was the
-*- lexical-binding: t -*-
bit on the first line.
And indeed, after making a copy of ps-print.el.gz, I deleted this
"lexical-binding" setting, deleted the .elc file, restarted
emacs-26 and now ps-print-buffer seems to work as expected.
I fumbled around a bit, but couldn't really work out more
specifically what is breaking...
All the best,
gm
