So for example this would allow me to select part of the screen, save it in lets say the a buffer. and then print the contents of the buffer. I tried to write the contents of the buffer to a /tmp file and then print the file but it didn't work good... Please help, any comments are appreciated... No flames Please... A VI fan..... ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Abed M.
