CAPBUF is a memory resident (TSR) program that lets you capture any text
screen and save it for later processing or printing. It is quite useful for
programs that do not otherwise provide means of printing their results. Use
it for intermediate results of games, or collecting copies of messages while
on a bulletin board.
To install the program, type:
>CAPBUF
A file will be created in the root of your current directory. It's named
"captured.buf". You can then run any programs you wish. When you find a
screen that you want to save, press Alt-J, and that screen will be appended
to your collection. When finished, you can print it out, or use any
wordprocessor to edit it. Note that if you enter the command
>TYPE \CAPTURED.BUF
it may appear that there are extra lines. These will not appear on
printing, though. When you are finished with a session, be sure to rename
the 'captured.buf' file, since the next time the program starts, it will
erase any previous file it finds.
To remove CAPBUF, just enter the program name again. You will then be asked
if you want to remove it. Any captured material will still be available.
CAPBUF is a shareware program. If you find it useful please send a
contribution of $15 to:
