Thanks John. I got 'snapshot' from lib 12.

But I guess I'll have to ask for more help....

I want to write a little utility to dump screens to my laser printer. This
should include gfx screens being displayed by something like 'gifshow'.

'snapshot' will not save a 'gifshow' screen. And even if it did, it saves in a
compressed, undocumented format. Guess I have to figure out where the screen
memory actually starts, etc. I will play with the system calls in kwindows, but
I don't know if I can get all the needed information.

If someone has already done this, please let me know so I don't waste my
time...
