     13clipboard. Many image formats are available. Installation of Heiko Nitzsche's
     14GBM.dll is now required to generate these images.

    26 :p.I wrote &progname. mainly because all other screen capture programs for
    27 OS/2 that I found were either really old and/or part of some big other
    28 program and/or buggy and/or not free.

    41 :p.&progname. is now released under the GPL, but as I'd still like to

    495 :li.One user couldn't open the settings window on a Warp 3 system; &progname.
    496 just exited. Problem is being investigated.
    497 
    498 :li.Another user has problems on his eCS system&colon. When saving GIFs,
    499 the program just hangs using the CPU to 100%. Also when pressing
    500 "Ok" in the settings window, &progname. just exits. After much debugging I
    501 found out that these problems occur *inside* the mmioWrite() and
    502 WinDestroyWindow() system functions! I have no idea what to do against
    503 this.
    504 
    505 :li.I have not been able to get saving the capture as a Jpeg to work. On
    506 some machines the OS/2 multimedia routine I use for opening the file returns
    507 some meaningless error, on some other machines it even crashes. If anybody
    508 has some more info about saving images using OS/2 multimedia, please contact
    509 me. I have not been able to find any documentation about this subject (except
    510 from the stuff shipped with VisualAge C++ 3.0 but that's not very good
    511 either as it seems to be targeted at people who already know how the whole
    512 thing works ... &colon.-(
    513 
    514483:li.The code for bringing the window to the top (when taking a capture of
    515484a window or window interior) is not very good and may not work correct
     
    527496if this has not happened for 1.5 seconds, the capture will start anyway.
    528497Yukky, I know, but what can I do?
    529 
    530 :li.Not really a bug, but&colon. Doing a screencapture in quiet mode (using
    531 the PrintScreen key) does not work, if a VIO (textmode) window has the focus.
    532 The author is heavily trying to ignore this problem, but eventually it will
    533 be fixed nevertheless someday ;-)

    535499:li.Not really a bug too, but still a little bit annoying&colon. One user
