Has anyone written a macro which will capture on screen text, to a file,
without ESCape sequences. Invoked by pressing a key combination (eg Alt+C)
you get PROMPTED for a file name, which you can then type. Alternatively
you can be GIVEN a default name which can be edited.

I'm not even sure if this is possible using MS-Kermit. I think I have
managed to getthis to work for a default filename. BUT I can't get user
imput to change this.
