I have recently heard of a utility called Capture which allows the user to select (with a selection rectangle) any area on the screen and send it to the clipboard. It provides for color clipping and is particularly use- ful when preparing documentation for software. Is this a PD or shareware utility? Is it available on the net? Any help would be appreciated. -David Pakman

Mainstay just announced version 2.0 with some new features (which, unfortunately, are at home so I can't tell you what they are). It's something around $60 at Computerware or MacConnection, and well worth it.

It's > something around $60 at Computerware or MacConnection, and well worth it. I recommend Color Snapshot FKEY by Mark III software. It can copy the whole screen or just a selection rectangle, and saves the selection in five different file formats (Grayview, GIF (!), PixelPaint, PICT resource, PICT2 file) or to the clipboard; a dialog box for this is given when invoked. It can also include pull-down menus in the snapshot. Amazingly enough, it works perfectly with Stepping Out; I use it regularly for doing file-type conversions on pictures larger than the screen. And it's only $15, shareware. One caveat: Mac II required. +====================\ Internet: jg2f+@andrew.cmu.edu \=======================+ | Jude Anand George \ BITNET: jg2f+@ANDREW | jg2f+%andrew@{CMCCVB|CMCCVMA} | | endanger judo age \ UUCP: the_known_world!harvard!andrew.cmu.edu!jg2f+ | +=======================\ CIS: 72307,1752 Jude George \====================+

We use "Capture" where I work. It's a commercial product by Mainstay. Check some mail-order houses. -- Chris Parson via cmhGate - Net 226 fido<=>uucp gateway Col, OH UUCP: ...!osu-cis!n8emr!cmhgate!382!54!Chris.Parson INET: Chris.Parson@f54.n382.z1.FIDONET.ORG
