    Command-line Printer for images.

    Title:
    "Just Print The Image"

    Description:
    For my friends in the DarkBasic and GameMaker communities, a simple utility that takes the path\filename of an image as a command line and simply prints it as a full page on the default printer. This allows those games, and other programs, to print without having to depend on MSPaint.

    Feature list:
    Nothing fancy, small size was a goal. It prints, it exits. If it can't find the file, it gives you a chance to select it in a standard file open dialog, then it exits. If you really can't figure it out, and try to run it without a command line, instructions show up.

    Screen-shots (if apt):
    Hopefully you will never see it. It should print without ever giving a hint of it's existance.

    Exe and source files attached, I unzipped them on a different computer and it ran, but who knows... tell me if you see any bug fixes or improvements I should make. I don't want to add features, but I would enjoy fixing bugs, trimming waste, and smoothing operation.
