Notecards are a great way of giving people information about things. Sometimes they contain complex instructions on how to use something. I find that occasionally I want print these out, either so I can read them off line or so I can close the box with the notecard in to try the instructions out. Switching backwards and forwards between the instructions and the space to try them is a pain.
To do this I currently have to cut out the text, open a text application, paste it in, format it and then print it.
I would like to see a "Print" option on the top of the Notecard so I can print it straight from there. A "select all" and "copy"/"paste" functions would be also useful to aid taking the text into documents for off line storage or bringing it back. I am sure this list of functions could be expanded further, but the "Print" one is the one I am really itching for at present.
As the viewer is now open source maybe this could be done by some kind third party and adopted by Linden Labs. If so I would like to see the author get public recognition for their contribution. Maybe it could be implemented by a properites option that allows you to select the current Notecard processor or the new third party one. This would allow the third party one to develop without the risk of cutting off all Notecard functions if it goes wrong.

What are the main problems for you to copy and paste notecard text into an external application? (E.g., if you run SL full-screen, I can see how that'd impede you to multitask between programs.)
