Define ``screen capture''.  Do you need it captured by a program, and 
then have that program process the captured text?  Or do you need just 
put it into a file?

If the former, use `popen'/`pclose' to run the child program.  If the 
latter, use one of the ways described in the DJGPP FAQ List 
(v2/faq210b.zip from the same place you get DJGPP), section 6.12.

How does it write its output to the screen?
