I know I'm being stupid, but I can't find the methods for getting screen
shots in GPL.  Could some nice soul post the steps you need to use to
take a screen shot in GPL?  Thanks in advance

Quote from the readme.txt in the gpl directory:

CAPTURING SCREENSHOTS

There are two methods of taking screenshots during the game.  First you can
press ALT-PrintScreen to capture the current screen in the clipboard,
allowing you to exit GPL and paste it into the paint program of your choice.
Secondly, and useful if you want to take a number of different shots at
once, pressing just the PrintScreen button saves sequentially numbered PBF
files (gplss##.pbf) to your GPL directory.  After exiting GPL you can then
use the included pbf2tga.exe program to convert them to a usable TGA format.

Regards,
Bart Westra

I know it's a pain in the butt, but open the readme.txt file that was
installed with GPL (it is located in your main GPL folder).  There you
will find the full answer along with some other cool stuff.

Enjoy!

Duh!  I knew I'd read it somewhere.  Thanks, all.
