Anyone out there know of a way to print the contents of the console screen from SCO Xenix? I think this is possible, but don't know how. Thanks. Dave Smith

Isn't there a control sequence that returns multiscreen contents to a calling process?

Yes, like all ansi (not dos-ansi) compatible terminal it is "\033[2i". Some year later i made a small program to pipe the content of the screen to stdout (to be catch by lp, for example) and was very simple. -- Walter Pelissero ...!lpds!wally wally@lpds.sublink.org "Who's been sleeping in my brain ?"
