how to make text capture with the DEBUG comman

For what purpose?
There is a way but it would be kind of roundabout, and it may be more
trouble than it is worth. You can use the screen capture program,
crop out everything but the stamp window and use an OCR program to
'recognize' the text from the screen capture.

    John,
    I have used a terminal program like Procomm Plus to capture incoming data.
    You can write programs (ASPECT Language) to display the data in in number of
    formats. I have not used it on the BS2 but the concept is the same.
    Good luck, Kirk
