print screen

Hi all,

Could you please tell me how to take a screenshot in aix (like Print Screen button in windows)?

Thanks

Use Cygwin's XWin to log into AIX box and use Windows' Print Screen.

Hi,

That means we can't take screen snapshot in aix. I want to take it from the same machine.

Thanks.

If you work in avgraphical environment (X-Windows) and have text terminals (xterm, aixterm, ...) you want to copy use the cut&paste abilities of X: left-click and mark, go to another window with some open vi (in input mode of course) and middle-click to paste.

Otherwise you could use "capture" or I/O-redirection.

If it is a graphic window (like Netscape, ...) use one of the many X-screenshot-programs there are: "xgrab" is one of them, there are many others.
