Bug description:
I really grew fond of the pocketmod printout of Thinking Rock and won't switch to gtg until it has a similar feature. So I hacked a quick and dirty way to create one for gtg 0.2.4

You need:
- export plugin
- pdflatex
- pdfjam
- pdftk
- files attached to this report

1. activate export plugin and place template_pocketmod.tex in /usr/share/gtg/GTG/plugins/export/export_templates/
2. export to a tex-file using the new export option
3. run pdflatex on your exported file
4. run pocketmod input.pdf output.pdf
5. print output.pdf

Restrictions:
- since I do have a lot of tasks I only print the tasknames, but not the task texts.
- you need to have enough tasks to create 8 or more pdf pages in step 3.
- it's designed for A4 format

This was written and tested on an up-to-date Ubuntu 10.04.

My hope is to get the discussion going for a proper export feature.
