Does anyone know of a technique for converting text screen dumps made
on a PC clone into a reasonable facsimile that a Mac can use? A PC
dumps its screen buffer to a file, yielding a file containing the
non-ASCII characters representing line rules, etc. I need to view that
file on a Mac and integrate it in a document. I need to have the line
rules, etc., intact. I can imagine some techniques, but am hoping for
a finished product, commercial or otherwise, that will do the job.
Alternatively, can anyone clue me into possible simple graphics interchange
formats and relevant tools? These PC screen dumps can be transformed
into some sort of graphics representation. Maybe it would be easier
to import these.
Thanks,
Scott
