168.0. "SCRIMPER" by KAOM03::GOSLING () Tue Nov 11 1986 15:06

       Has anyone out there used and had any luck with SCRIMPER, the
       SCReen IMage to PrintER program which was used as a C tutorial in
       AMAZING COMPUTING and was also on one of the AMICUS disks.  I
       installed it on the weekend and while it implies it builds a menu
       of the open "screens", which you can then select and print, all I
       ever end up with is a menu of 1 screen - the WORKBENCH SCREEN.
       I've tried starting SCRIMPER up under both CLI and WORKBENCH, with
       exactly the same result.  I've also started it up after opening a
       number of screens and before opening any screens, with exactly the
       same outcome - still the 1 menu entry - WORKBENCH SCREEN.

       The version that I have was acquired from the AMICUS disk and is
       V0.6.

       Help!

       P.S. it does print the WORKBENCH SCREEN so something is working!

    It'll print the screen as it appears. Just click Workbench a couple
    times. I haven't seen the menu work though!

       Thanks again Paul, your batting 1000 on solving my problems.  I
       guess I had anticipated that the program would have worked as
       advertised, given that it was the basis for a tutorial - wrong!!
