If you need this for actual work and functionality, forget it. Buy Timbuktu.
Worth every penny for remotely administering a server. I speak from
experience.

If you insist on pursuing the Applescript route just to see what's on the
screen, get Sigma's additions from Eric Grant's Extremely Modest Home Page

<http://home.earthlink.net/~eagrant/>

The syntax would be

type text "3" holding down {command,shift}

which places a screenshot in a SimpleText document at the root level of the
hard drive named Picture 1 (or a higher number if you let them accumulate).
You can then transfer the file over AppleTalk over TCP/IP. I don't know what
you mean by transferring the information into a dialog box - Applescript di
alog boxes can't show that sort of image.

For a mechanism (other than program linkin over IP) to execute an Applescript
on a remote machine, check out
