Stolen straight out of the database.

This is the key command sequence for doing a D8B screen capture.

Control-Esc takes a screen shot of the entire screen

Control-Shift-Esc takes a screenshot of a window, like a setup window (if there's one open).
Once invoked, it pops up a screenshot verification prompt.

You need to use FTP to get at the Screens folder....which contains .BMP image files. And they take quite a while to transfer because of the D8B's ancient ethernet protocol.

Probably so. I think you could save the pic to floppy as I recall. I don't remember doing the FTP dance when I did a screen capture.

I plan to install a floppy emulator. I think this will simplify everything. Thank You, Crash!
