Forgive me if this has been asked before, but has
anyone successfully gotten a printscreen-like
function to work on a sco xenix console?
I have seen the screen codes to send the screen
contents to the application (ESC[2i), but I can't
seem to get it to work.
Any friendly suggestions appreciated.

How do I get a console screen dump? Give the following command, all on one line: stty -echo ixon ixoff -ixany; /bin/echo '\033[2i' ; cat > screen.out ; stty sane ... Then wait approx. 10 seconds and type <ctrl>-d. The output is a file in the current directory called 'screen.out'. If desired, this command can be put into a shell script, as shown below. ... oldstty='stty -g' stty -echo ixon ixoff -ixany; /bin/echo '\033[2i' ; head -24 >> screen.out ; stty $oldstty ...
