Re: Screenshot of console?



I thought he said he wanted a picture of the "text console". There's no Finder, no help menu, no UI at all in that case. It's the Darwin text console and there is no way of taking a snapshot of it.

I did not think that your request was for anything as simple as a screenshot of the desktop. It is always the simplest things that befuddle us, or at least me.

If you go to the help menu in the Finder and type something like, "snapshot of screen". One of the possible options which come up is
"Taking a picture of your entire screen". The explanation continues with the use of the Grab application.


And yes, when such a snapshot is taken the pixels are included which can be brought to glorious magnification via the use of GraphiConverter which can open Grab's output and import it for manipulation as you please. GraphiConverter can also be used to narrow the screen image to your area of interest, but you probably already knew that.

However, if you want the location and placement of each pixel identified as you work with it; you are probably aware that GraphiConverter contains a pixel map. It has lots of features which are quite useful depending on what you intend. As usual, the nature of the task you are setting or have set, will determine if these tools are enough, or insufficient.

Best wishes...

Is there any reasonable way to get a screenshot of the text console in Darwin?
Not just the text, but the actual pixels?
