3107.0. "local copy/print screen @ vt200(smokey)emul." by CSC32::J_JOHNSON () Tue Nov 14 1989 12:39

    
    
    
    I work in the RDG in Colorado Spring and often dial in 	
    to our system from home using SMOKEY (vt200 emulator).
    I have a need for "local copy" or "print screen" capabilities
    for hardcopy of session. I tried the "HARDCOPY" program from
    FF. It works great from the CLI but of course does not work
    with the v200 emulator.  Does anyone have a solution to this
    problem? Thanks in advance for any response!

Select ASCII Capture and instead of giving it a file name to capture to, give 
it PRT:

I use GRABBIT.  I set up printer preferences that give me a quick 
graphics dump of the screen.  I set it up for a white background 
with black text.  The screen dump is pretty quick that way.

    Thanks for the info!!!I tried directing ascii capture to the PRT:.
    It works fine except that it seems to have to fill  a buffer before
    it gets to the printer. Therefore a delay of about 1 1/2 pages before
    it dumps to the printer. To dump the half full buffer I turned "ascii
    capture" off and it finishes printing to the PRT:.There is probably a way
    around this but I have not found it. Any ideas?  Thanks again.
