I am asking these questions for a friend.  Hopefully, I am writing
to the write place.  All questions are in regards to AT&T 386 UNIX
System V, Release 3.2.  Here goes:

1.  Does anyone have or know of a utility that is capable of capturing
    an application's video display to an ASCII file?  Such a utility
    would probably operate on a "hot key" and preferably append multiple
    screen captures to a given file.

2.  Does anyone have a utility for booting from a DOS partition at the
    UNIX boot prompt.  The functionality desired is identical to that
    available in SCO Xenix System V.  Specifically /etc/default/boot
    UNIX boot prompt.  The functionality desired is identical to that
    available in SCO Xenix System V.  Specifically /etc/default/boot defines
    AUTOBOOT=NO if "DOS" is entered at the prompt, a "DOS" stand alone 
    boot defines program is executed which reads the partition table,
    finds the DOS area, and initiates a DOS boot sequence.
