     Well, the responses to my question numbered in the
high fours or low twos, depending on what you'd call a
response - two of them were from people who were going
to need this information also, and asked for it to be
passed on.  I don't quite have an answer yet, but... 

     Lyle Levine gave me the address of Jewell Tech-
nologies, Inc.  They sell a memory-resident program that
will dump Hercules and EGA graphics (and maybe others)
for $50 (okay, $49.95, round-off error got to me).  This
doesn't quite solve my problem: i wanted my *program* to
screen dump, not to invoke someone else's program.  On
the other hand, it may be just what some people need, so
i am including their address. 

     Eric Hughes sent me the phone number of a BBS that
has a file SCRNDUMP.ARC, which may allow Hercules and
EGA screen dumping (he has not tried it).  I don't know
if it contains sources or not.  I currently have only
GUEST priviledges there, and am waiting to be upgraded,
as soon as the sysop gets around to it.  (To be fair, i
did enroll just before the fourth of July weekend). 

     I hope the two people who also need this infor-
mation can use what i've posted here.  I will post any
further information that i can find.  And of course, if
anyone else has any information, i would greatly
appreciate it...
