perhaps the OSX font scaling in prints should be fixed for 2.0...
either temporary with some #ifdefs or moving to using GTK_UNITS_MM
(_INCH) and using two different scales (prints / screen).

just pushed the new changes from master to the "nightly" build packages at:
https://github.com/neolit123/subsurface_win32
the above repository will remain "master" branch _only_ and i may also
include the NSIS installer.

i won't mind maintaining the windows port, but also i would happily
replace myself from this "position" with someone who is actually a
diver (i.e. knows the theory / terminology) and runs windows on a
regular basis.

if you have anything specific in mind for windows, i can try helping out.
