[comp.lang.smalltalk] Printing screen dumps from the Tek 4404 workstation.

rjn@cs.purdue.EDU (Robert J. Nealon) (07/06/88)

Help!!!!!!

Does anyone know how to print out the screen dumps that are generated from 
Smalltalk-80 on the Tek 4404.  The file contains a header and then a bitmap
of the display screen.  Is there any programs out there that will convert the 
file to the Postscript format or to any other standard format that most laser 
printers will accept.  Any other hints or advice would be welcome.

Bob - If you have not yet received a satisfactory reply to your request, please
let me know.  I can send you Smalltalk fileIn code to:
	-	program function key 11 to frame a portion of your St screen and
		convert that part to a ST readable bitmap
	-	within Smalltalk, take that bitmap, increase its size, etc. , and convert
		to postscript format, using a c program (source code provided) and
		an include .h file (also provided).
