Print-Screen

[Nejib Ben Hadj-Alouane]

Hello everyone,

Several people wanted a summary on the responses to my question conserning
print-screen with xenix. So, here is what I got from Jeff Liebermann on the 
issue. Many thanks to him.

This appeared in one of the sco "Discover" news rag.  It's not
exactly what you want, but is as close as I can get.  It only
works with an ansi console or terminal.  escape sequences could
probably be tweaked for other terminals.

:
# capture
# execute from cu as ~!capture				# for cu
oldstty=`stty -g`					# save stty settings
stty -echo ixon ixoff -ixany; /bin/echo '\033[2i' ;	# screen dump
head -24 >> screen.$$ ; stty $oldstty			# trim off data
							# restore stty sets
