Should have kept my mouth shout...
According to the "Mac OS 9 Bible", pg. 742, "You can take a picture of your
desktop with a built-in feature of the Mac OS. Pressing Cmd+Shift+3 takes a
picture of your whole screen; Cmd+Shift+4 lets you drag out a rectangular
picture selection. Use Caps Lock and Cmd+Shift+4 to take a picture of a
window in the active application by clicking the window. To place the
picture on the Clipboard instead of in a SimpleText picture file on your
startup disk, add the Control key to either of those key combinations."
I stand corrected.

In its native habitat, the code grinder often removes the suit jacket to reveal an underplumage consisting of button-down shirt (starch optional) and a tie. In times of dire stress, the sleeves (if long) may be rolled up and the tie loosened about half an inch. It seldom helps. The code grinder's milieu is about as far from hackerdom as one can get and still touch a computer; the term connotes pity.-- This is the Newtontalk mailinglist - http://www.newtontalk.net To unsubscribe or manage: visit the above link or mailto:newtontalk-request_at_newtontalk.net?Subject=unsubscribe
