- NAME SavePubScreen256 - find the given (public-)screen and save it to a file.
-
- >>> WHY FOR GOD'S SAKE A ``NEW'' SAVER ?
-
- ADVANTAGES
-
- - this one handles big screens, 1280x1024x8 is *NO*
- problem ( if you have enough HD space, ofcourse )
-
- - this one could handle 256 colors (8bit)
-
- DISADVANTAGES
-
- - this one could **ONLY** handle 256 colors (8bit)
-
- - its neither fast in chunky->planar converting nor
- has it fast buffered file i/o. this one is only
- functional NOT efficient.
-
- - because of its slowlyness the grabber freezes the
- publicscreen via a global ILock().
- this could cause system damage in several cases.
