Did any of you guys and gals who were talking about the screen capture
program called SNIPPER ever get it to work?  I have finally got it working
but unless I'm reading the doc file incorrectly, something not uncommon with
my small computer sense, it isn't working like it should.  I can capture a
screen all right but I have to move the cursor down to the bottom line and
also move it clean over to the right hand margine before saving it to the
screen.cut filename.  It appears that the docs say that the default capture
is one whole screen but perhaps I'm mistaken.  I have tried leaving the
cursoron  column 1 and then moving it down to the bottom row and saving it
but oddly enough, all I get in the screen cut file is the first letter in
every row on the left margine.  Figure that one out and you when a free trip
to ping pong Alaska.  It is a very nice little program but somebody either
explain what I'm not doing or suggest a program that you don't have to move
the cursor half way around the world for results.  Willie, didn't I read
somewhere of another screen capture program you have?

Phil.
