Does anyone know how to print sceen while using the Personal Pascal
environment?  I though control-alt-help would work, but it doesn't.

I wrote a simple PP program that displays a few things on the screen,
and would like to dump this screen to the printer.  After the
program executes, I type ctl-alt-help keys simultaneously, but
I just end up back in the PP environment and nothing is printed
because PP is waiting for any key input so that it can return.
I tried using READLN as my last instruction, but PP still
doesn't recognize ctl-alt-help.

Is there any way to dump the screen within PP?
