ScreenClip V1.0
(C)CopyRight 1989 by Christopher J. Conrad
Function: ScreenClip will copy an area of the active
screen and convert it to ascii data statements.
The user can specify 'C' or 'Assembly' language format.
Data statements will be structured in BitMap format.
Format: ScreenClip [-dc] X Y +X +Y Name
The first field specifies options. Option
'd' will cause the program to wait 4 seconds
before getting any data from the screen. This
gives the users time to activate a different
screen before the program copies the data. If
this option is left out then the program will
not delay.
Option 'c' will specify output data to be in 'C'
language format. Assembly format source is the
default.
The 'X' and 'Y' parameters specify the upper-
left coordinates of the rectangle that will
be copied relative to the upper-left corner of
the active screen.
The '+X' and '+Y' parameter specify the size of
the rectangle that will be copied and converted
to data statements.
Finally 'Name' will specify the name you want to
give your rectangle. The name be included in
the output listings, thus making each set of
data statements unique.
Also note that you will probably want to use redirection
parameters when calling ScreenClip. Using redirection
paramters, you can send your output to a disk or printer.
The redirection parameters should appear right after the
program name.
Example:
'ScreenClip >df1:out.asm 0 0 60 20 BitName' will send
your output to the disk drive with the filename
'out.asm'.
'ScreenClip >>df1:out.asm 0 0 60 20 BitName' will append
your output to the file 'out.asm' on the disk drive.
------------------------------------------------------------
This program was written in 100 percent assembly language.
It uses the blitter to word alian screen data before
output, so you'll need enough memory to hold a copy of your
image. This program was tested in low memory situations
and behaves quite well. Note that the rectangle to be
copied will be padded with 0's to the greatest word boundry.
This program is freely distributable provided all files in this
archive remain intact. Feel free to send a few dollars if you find
this program useful.
