Well, it looks like I wrote this stuff some 4 years ago. ;-) I needed it as
a quick and dirty means for the students to add a printout of the patch to
their homework assignments. Maybe it's time to revisit it.

So, is it possible to have access to this window (which only appears ~ 1/2

The API which nw.js provided for this purpose at the time (
https://nwjs.readthedocs.io/en/nw19/References/Window/#winprintoptions) was
rather limited and didn't allow user interaction. But it looks like there's
a new autoprint flag which fixes this issue, so we might be able to offer
something better now.

I'll look into it as soon as I find the time.

Then, the PDF file saving will have to be done from this window.
