Hi:
	We use a modelling program (SYBYL) on our Crimson. How
can I copy a portion of the display and send it to a Post
Script printer? I can print structures from within the program,
but they are in a crude line-graph format.
	I was told a while ago that an X utility exits that
does this, but I do not remember any of the details.
	Sorry if this is a FAQ. 
				Regards, Kestas

Use "snapshot" or "scrsave" to save a portion of the screen as an SGI
Image.  If your printer is hooked to the Crimson using the Print
Manager's "Generic PostScript" interface, just type "lp snap.rgb."
