I received recommendations for a CDEV called Flash-It and a DA called Camera. Both are available from the sumex archives; both seem to do the job. Camera insisted on putting its screen-dump file into the System folder, which I found irritating; also, one person told me that Camera crashes on Mac IIs. Flash-It is shareware ($15), but is more flexible and seems the better choice. I also received recommendations for two commercial products: Snapjot from Wildflower Software, and Capture from Mainstay. I'm happy with Flash-It so have not investigated either. Many thanks to the respondents. -- tom lane Internet: tgl@cs.cmu.edu UUCP: !cs.cmu.edu!tgl BITNET: tgl%cs.cmu.edu@cmuccvma CompuServe: >internet:tgl@cs.cmu.edu
