In bluefish I give it the command
vim "+ha>~/PDF/%s.ps" +q %s 2>/dev/null

but i can't seem to get any kind of output :( I have tried changing it 
in all sorts of ways, but nothing seems to output a file.

After I get this working I'm thinking I can pipe the output to
lp -d 'postscript-color'
Where hopefully I'll end up with my PDF :)
