How do I take a screenshot in GPL?  I've looked in the manuals, and I can't
seem to find the answer.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  My thanks
in advance.      Wally

When all else fails, reading the readme.txt file usually has the answer.

Not quite. I did what it says and I don't see where the new file has
appeared. Have you done this successfully.

Thanks, Alan    doh!!  it's so easy to miss the obvious sometimes

Gene, the screenshot is saved as a .pbf file in the gpl folder
(drive:/sierra/gpl.)  You then have to go to good old DOS, and convert this
file to a tga file using the pbf2tga.exe file also located in the gpl
folder.  I hope that's not too muddy an explanation.  Good Luck
