Subject: Kaypro Screen Capture/Dump

Thanks for the answers to my earlier question about VT100
terminal emulators for Kaypro.
I tried VT100KAY from the Simtel archives and it works pretty well,
although it sometimes messes up by doulbe-spacing when it shouldn't
(probably wrapping around on long lines or something).

Anyways, I'm now looking for a way to save screens for future reference.
Is there a program you can load it that will give you a hot key
that will either dump the current text screen out to the printer
(like the PrintScreen key on an IBM PC), or capture the current screen into
a file?

I tried KPVID, but this only puts graphics screens into a file
(at least I think that's what the documentation means), and it
is a separate command you have to run after getting out
of your program.

Or, do any of the terminal programs people recommended to me
have these features?  Just capturing the terminal session 
character by character (logging) is not good enough, because the cursor
is jumping all around the screen updating the display.

Thanks again for any help you can give.
