Hi,
First of all- this is my first Linux experience- wonderful distro, and one I now pretty much know my way around.
My question is, is there an equivalent of PrintScreen for Puppy where I can take a screenshot of the desktop and save it, as I'm wondering how the screenshots on the main page were taken?
Thanks
Does Puppy have a screenshot utility?

screen capture / print screen / prnt scrn
Start / graphic processing / a choice of two screen capture routines
if using mtpaint (an excellent program with very good support from Mark Tyler)
go straight into any area (on the "print screen" capture) you wish to highlight and press delete - it will crop
Hope that is what you require

Ctrl+alt+p for screenshots

- I just tried this on my machine - using Puppy 1.0.3 installed on 512meg Lexar JumpDrive and the combination worked like a champ - see attached photo - the Print Screen alternative did not, however.

when I do the Cntl-Alt-P keystroke combination, the m-paint program comes up in a new window and that allows me to name the photo (be sure to put a .jpg or other graphics extention on it or it saves it as a text file), and save it where I want - either Puppy or more likely the hard drive (aka WindowsXP), to save space in Puppy.
