We don't run X, but instead run FreeBSD 2.2.1 in text mode only. I would like to be able to grab a copy of the screen contents, and save it to a file. Ideally, I would like to be able to grab a shot of any console, but I can live with only being able to grab the active console. Please repsond in email to: jim@carroll.com Thanks for any help.
