I'm looking for an editor to print (on paper) C++ code. I'm currently in engineering school and the instructor has asked us to submit the code on paper.He wants name +surname, the class number (on header), the number of page at the bottom, and the reserved words bolded for every page! On Windows it can be done with notepadd++. But I'm on Linux and I haven't found an IDE or text editor that works. (I've already tried SCITE, gedit, and Syntaxic)
Text editor for printing C++ code

Well, if you want to go the extra mile, do it in LaTeX and provide a professional level PDF file. You haven't mentioned your distribution so I'll give instructions for Debian based systems. The same basic idea can be done on any Linux though. Install a LaTeX system and necessary packagessudo apt-get install texlive-latex-extra latex-xcolor texlive-latex-recommendedCreate a new file (call it report.tex) with the following contents:\documentclass{article}\usepackage{fancyhdr}\pagestyle{fancy}%% Define your header here. %% See http://texblog.org/2007/11/07/headerfooter-in-latex-with-fancyhdr/\fancyhead[CO,CE]{John Doe, Class 123}\usepackage[usenames,dvipsnames]{color}  %% Allow color names%% The listings package will format your source code\usepackage{listings}\lstdefinestyle{customasm}{  belowcaptionskip=1\baselineskip,  xleftmargin=\parindent,  language=C++,  breaklines=true, %% Wrap long lines  basicstyle=\footnotesize\ttfamily,  commentstyle=\itshape\color{Gray},  stringstyle=\color{Black},  keywordstyle=\bfseries\color{OliveGreen},  identifierstyle=\color{blue},  xleftmargin=-8em,  showstringspaces=false}        \begin{document}\lstinputlisting[style=customasm]{/path/to/your/code.c}\end{document}Just make sure to change /path/to/your/code.c in the penultimate line so that it point to the actual path of your C file. If you have more than  one file to include, add a \newpage and then a new \lstinputlisting for the other file. Compile a PDF (this creates report.pdf)pdflatex report.tex    I tested this on my system with an example file I found here and it creates a PDF that looks like this:For a more comprehensive example that will automatically find all .c files in the target folder and create an indexed PDF file with each in a separate section, see my answer here.
