I am trying to capture a screen image and send it to a MS Windows machine.
To do this I think I will use ScreenImage. The documentation I have about it
says it returns a void*.
My question is, what format is the returned data structure in? Or is there
an easier way?
I have the 1992 version docs.
Thank you

Do you deal with QNX Windows ?

Yes, it is QNX windows

ScreenImage generates an internal format.
If you look at ftp.qnx.com:/usr/free/qnx4/qwindows/utils/picthp.tgz,
this is a utility that converts the output from ScreenImage into HPGL.
Also, take a look at the DrawImage() command – it gives a bit more
information about what an “Image” element looks like. Next place to
look is the header files.
You would have to write a convertor yourself – something that understood
the Image file format for input, then did the output in some format that
would be understood on the windows side – I’d pick something simple
for the output (bmp?), then use some other image convertor tool (there
are a number of such PD tools available) to convert it to a more
compressed format (e.g. jpeg).
Or, you could look at using pictps – this will convert the image to
postscript.

16 or 256 colors ?
what driver gr.* ?
and what version of QNX Windows ?
Some combinations do not allow to use ScreenImage at all
some return the internal format
and there is also a trick how to get a body of corresponding bmp file

256 colors
QNX 4
QNX Windows 2.3
I need access to the data as a bitmap(matrix form).

try www.microstep-mis.sk
there is fotbmp.pax.F in Downloads.
after installation, see usage of /usr/local/bin/fotbmp
Please let me know here whether it works.

I downloaded fotbmp and it worked great capturing my Qnx4 Windows screen
into a bitmap image file.
Thanks,
