Yes, I think this is what I call screenshot or dump. In this context, let me mention I found a cool way to do it for Linux VT/tty/console users. In another terminal, execute the following zsh function (with the assumption that Emacs is in /dev/tty1) - dumpemacs () { file=$1.png sudo fbgrab -c 1 $file sudo chown $USER $file } I don't know why you have to do it as superuser and IIRC it didn't help to 'chmod +s' - also, perhaps the group should be changed as well - but anyway, the screenshot looks great - here is a screenshot of me writing this: http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573/screencast.png -- underground experts united
