Hi,

My little brother has an amiga ( that why I post here ) and he wants to
dump screens to disc. He has some nice games with good graphics and he likes
to save them in IFF format ( or something like that ). Because most disc are
in M-DOS format ( sorry if I have it wrong, but I am not totally familiar
with the Amiga ) and he can't look on the disc. So the question is :
- Is there a PD screen dumper which makes it possible to dump screens to
  disc ? So it should be possible to start the dumper, reboot with some game,
  press some key combination, ( change disc or maybe it will save to ram disc ),
  and it will save the screen to disc ( or ram ).

I don't know if this is a stupid question, but I ( and my little brother )
would like to know if it is possible.

Thanks in advance,
Bye,
Angelo Melis
