- GRAB
- A Screen Capturing Utility
- Hit ALT-PrtSc to activate
-
-
- GRAB.COM is a TSR screen-capturing utility that saves a copy of
- the current screen image in a BOX Memory format file. GRAB is
- quite useful for creating demonstrations and training programs
- by capturing screens from operating programs.
-
- To use GRAB first load the program into memory by typing GRAB
- at the DOS prompt. The program will write a short message on
- the screen confirming that it has been loaded. After GRAB has
- been loaded into memory it will go to sleep and return you to
- the DOS prompt so that you may run any other program you wish.
-
- When you see a screen image that you want to capture, GRAB may
- be activated by hitting the ALT key and the PrtSc key
- simultaneously. GRAB will wake up, take a snapshot of the
- screen, and then write the screen image to the current disk
- drive and directory in a BOX Memory format. The first file
- created by GRAB will be assigned the name BOX000.MEM.
- Subsequent files will named BOX001.MEM, BOX002.MEM and so on.
-
- Later you can load the screen images which have been saved with
- GRAB into the BOX editor and further modified. Although GRAB
- only writes files in a Memory format you can easily modify the
- format by loading the file into BOX with a Memory format and
- saving the file with a ASCII or Packed format.
