Hi,

printing
http://git.grml.org/?p=grml-live.git;a=blob_plain;f=templates/GRML/grml-cheatcodes.txt;hb=HEAD
isn't easy as there are some long lines especially in the
"Configuration settings" section where word-wrap looks aw-
ful.

Is there a PDF (A4) version available somewhere?

You can easily create one yourself:

wget -O cheatcodes.txt "http://git.grml.org/?p=grml-live.git;a=blob_plain;f=templates/GRML/grml-cheatcodes.txt;hb=HEAD"
a2ps -1 -l 120 cheatcodes.txt -o cheatcodes.ps
ps2pdf cheatcodes.ps cheatcodes.pdf

a2ps -1 -l 120 cheatcodes.txt -o cheatcodes.ps
ps2pdf cheatcodes.ps cheatcodes.pdf
That just scales down the text so that there is no word-
wrap, but also makes the text hard to read due to its size
while leaving 30 % of the page empty.

If there could be done anything to improve grml-cheatcodes.txt for
a2ps usage or some other tool(s) while still being useful as
plain-text file I'd be happy to accept any patches/PRs (so no, we
don't have anything better yet :)).
