Depends on the interface you use. On X-windows you can do a xwd which create a window dump. If it is a terminal connection, I would suggest using a windows terminal emulator, where - will put a window dump in your buffer. Which makes it easy to put window dumps in your documents. The xwd output is not easy to use, you will need some tools to convert them to usable formats.

If you don't have a PC and you just want a shot of a terminal window, then TSM will do the job.
Start up tsm, run your app, and when you want to take your screenshot, use ^T to get the TSM menu and then follow cut&paste options to cut your text, then paste into vi, or whatever.

The easy way is to run this application on windows, using xwindows serwer (like X-Win32), and print screen by Alt Print Screen

Qdlaty,

We use xwd for this purpose. Something like this (to print):

XPR=/usr/contrib/bin/X11/xpr
XWD=/usr/bin/X11/xwd
HEADER="Printed by `whoami` on `date`"
$XWD -frame | $XPR -header "$HEADER" -cutoff 75| lp -o nb -oraw -d$printer

Or, if you just want to dump to a file:

xwd -nobdrs -out savewindow


You can then reprint the saved file with:

xwud -in savewindow

Or ship it to another display with:

xwud -in savewindow -display $1:0.0
(where $1 is the name of the display)


The xwd command changes your mouse pointer to a "crosshair", which you then use to select the window you want to dump by clicking in the window. Overlapping windows will get captured, so sometimes it's handy to use the alt-tab sequence to bring the desired window to the forefront.

Hi,

there was the good old 'screencapture' in UX 10.20 (in /opt).
I've copied it to 11.0 - it works.
It is more comfortable than xwd.
You can say if you want TIFF or BMP which can be read in `Word' for ex.

Do you have a 10.20 anywhere?

Read the text in that patch -->PHSS_29338

Then you know why capture is anymore in the OS.


If you have installed WTSharedX (somewhere on Appl Disks) this patch will re-add this programm back to the OS under /usr/contrib/bin/capture.
