WESTFORD CUSTOM PC/FX BCAP.EXE 1/3/94
CIS: 76470,2417

Includes: BCAP2.EXE (hotkey Alt+1)


BCAP.EXE is a screen capture utility for use with the BIOSColor code
generator. BCAP.EXE creates a screen dump of 4000 bytes. Although
BCOLOR.EXE and BIOSColor-generated routines can be used only with color
VGA systems, BCAP.EXE will save images from either color or monochrome
systems and automatically checks which type of system is running.


USING BCAP.EXE

When loading BCAP from the command line, the program acknowledges
loading and identifies its hotkey (Ctlr+number pad 5). Any attempt to
load a second copy of the program will fail. An onscreen warning will
also restate the hotkey. Unload BCAP by entering bcap /u.

NOTE: BCAP prompts you for the name of the file to create. If the file
already exists, BCAP will overwrite the existing file without warning.

BCAP will pop up only if invoked while the host system is running in
text mode. Any attempt to invoke BCAP in a graphics mode will cause the
program to beep but take no other action.

To minimize its size, BCAP will not accept a different hotkey
assignment. To accommodate those for whom the hotkey assignment
(Ctlr+number pad 5) is not acceptable, BCAP2.EXE is included. BCAP2 is
identical to BCAP but is invoked with the hotkey Alt+1.
