I am looking for a program to dump the content of whatever displayed on the GRAPHIC screen to a file or a printer. I thought I ran into something like that a while ago but couldn't find any around. I'd like to see such a tool posted with source and exectable files. By the way, it would be even nicer if the program can deal with all kinds of graphic modes, e.g. CGA, VGA, EGA, .... Thanks a lot. - Lee Han lh@garnet.BERKELEY.edu

Graphics.com comes with dos (at least with 4.01, and most likely earlier
versions as well). Run it BEFORE you run you graphics app that you want
to do a screen dump with. Hit PrintScreen while in graphics mode, off to
work goes your printer.
Now, graphics is (from what I understand) slow with anything of higer res
than CGA. Available at simtel20.army.mil (26.2.0.74) and wuarchive.wustl.edu
(128.252.135.4) in the appropriate graphics directories are other programs
that speed up graphic dumps for specific resolutions (i.e. ega, vga, etc).
But, all-in-all, if you don't want to go hunting for the programs, and have
time to waste, just run dos' GRAPHICS.COM.
Hope this helps,
