The snapshot utility that is part of the DESKSET package lets you capture a "snapshot" of a window, a region or the whole screen. The snapshot can be stored in a file as a raster image or sent to an arbitrary postscript printer. If you don't have access to a postscript printer, the pbmplus software package has conversions to many other formats. Bob Haar InterNet : rhaar@gmr.com Computer Science Dept., G.M.
