The Save Script as New Menu Item is only present if the script window is open. I can see why I did this, but it would be better if the menu item was visible but grayed-out.

On a different point, there are internally "save/restore selection" commands - these should be available via scheme, so that you can print and still keep your selection. (And more...)

As this is Denemo, you should be able to fix this in a minute or two (as a user) and then contribute your fix to the Denemo community.
Show scheme script window (View menu)
Click Record on that window.
Then select Edit->Select->Unset Mark
Then select File->Print Preview
(cancel the print)
This should create the script you need in the scheme script window.
So now in the File menu right click and choose Save Script as New Menu Item, call it PrintWhole with label Print.
Then on the old print command right click and select the Edit Shortcuts... item and make the command hidden using the check box.
Then save your command set.

Stepping thru this, I find that the Save Script as New Menu Item has vanished from my menus...

Please remove the popup if a selection is active if you want to printout the whole file.

Better print out the whole file anytime, no matter what the selection is, and provide a new menu-option to print the selection as excerpt.
