hi. i was wondering whether anyone has used Mainstay's Capture 3.0 and
what they thought of it? and i've also heard that there is a way
to capture the screen via a keyboard sequence. if it is at all an
issue, i've got an extended keyboard. and has anyone heard of the
DA Camera? is it a shareware? and where can i get it. and lastly
how does these various screen capturing capabilities compare?
thanks in advance.

It is available at sumex-aim.stanford.edu in the directory info-mac/cdev. This is much like capture, but adds several options: the ability to capture directly to disk or a printer.

(Capslock sends whole screen and not just top window to printer when you cs4.) If you want it in color, pick up one of the CDEVs that do that... I have it at home, but forget the name... if you don't find out, send me email and I'll try to rememeber to look.

If I appear to be flaming, either (a) it's an illusion due to the lack of nonverbal cues or (b) my sprinkler system has suffered a momentary glitch, so just ignore me until it's fixed.

Command-shift-3 takes a screen snapshot in MacPaint format, if you are in black-and-white and if your main screen isn't too large. In System 7, Command-shift-3 takes a screen snapshot of your entire desktop, regardless of color depth, size, or number of screens. It is saved as a PICT file, which can be read and displayed by (among others) TeachText. TeachText will also allow you to select rectangles from the picture and copy them to the clipboard. (The funny sound you hear when you take the snapshot is the sound of a camera's shutter. :-) ========================================================================== Rick Holzgrafe | {sun,voder,nsc,mtxinu,dual}!apple!rmh Software Engineer | AppleLink HOLZGRAFE1 rmh@apple.com Apple Computer, Inc. | "All opinions expressed are mine, and do 20525 Mariani Ave. MS: 3-PK | not necessarily represent those of my Cupertino, CA 95014 | employer, Apple Computer Inc."
