Hi Net!

I've been following the various discussions on Shift-PrtScr.  What I
need is a way to save the screen contents to a file instead of to the
printer.  Ideally, when Shift-PrtScr is pressed, a small prompt would
appear asking me for the target filename and then the screen image
(newline terminated) would be dumped to that file.  I need to be able 
to capture exactly what's on the screen for later inclusion in a manual.
My alternative is typing each screen in by hand (there are about 30).

Thanks in advance!

Kevin
