Screenshots aren't tough to get from Arachne (with PrtScr), so I must be
talking about something else, right?
This is off-topic, but I'm hoping a developer here can answer this question
out of hand.
I'm evaluating a freeware program manager called Access and wanted to
capture some screenshots, but so far it has defied everything I've tried:
VideoThief, Screen Thief, SuperClip and Windows 98's built-in utility.
(Except that VideoThief will capture about the top 2/3 of the screen.) In
Win 98 the program runs in a full-screen window on account of whatever video
modes the program uses.
Earlier versions of the program had a built-in screenshot utility triggered
by the $ key, but this no longer works in v4.60 and v5.0. The current
version is using the Allegro Game Library for its graphics core, if that
tells you something.
I have emailed the author, Ronald Blankendaal (his site is at
http://surf.to/AccessDosMenu), but I see that he does not have any
current-version screenshots on his site, so perhaps he has the same problem.
But again, I'm guessing that one of you developers will size this little
challenge up in short order.
