The Program must be able to handle a scrolling screen. : An extract from /pc/ts/tsfaq15.arc frequently asked questions collection (available from uwasa.fi archives as are the programs described below). BTW, this is at least the fourth time this month alone that this question is asked by a different poster. A genuine FAQ is there ever was one. 1. ***** Q: I want to capture to a file everything that comes on the screen. How do I do this? A1: There are two sets of programs that are useful here. The first set consists of programs which automatically capture to a file everything that comes on the screen. Examples of these "scrolling" programs are /pc/pd2/concpy11.zip (or whatever version is the latest) and /pc/pd2/script11.zip. The second set are the "static" programs which capture a snapshot of the screen, or a portion of the screen at the invocation of a hot key. Get /pc/pd2/snippr22.zip for such a utility. Another is /pc/printer/lamneth.zip which redirects the results of pressing the PrintScreen key to a file instead of the printer. A third one is /pc/printer/scap225.zip. Please note that these programs only work for the text mode. They won't capture graphics output. (The same : ...................................................................
