Anyone have a copy of LPTX they can post?  I missed it, and it sure sounds
really useful.

Thanks in advance.

Perhaps we can persuade Mark DiVecchio, the author of the
program, to post the latest version, if there is one?  I believe
he is lurking about the net somewhere (comp.lang.c?).

I have one dated 1985, and it seems to have a few bugs like hanging
dBase after the first 512 bytes, but it works quite well for capturing
screens and printer output from most programs.

I will be glad to post if he can't be contacted.
