Hi, I am trying to capture the content of Full-screen DOS console to a bitmap file. Here are the steps I am trying. When the user opens up DOS console window, and does ALT+ENTER to go into Full-screen DOS mode. The user then hits PrintScreen Key. This copies the content of the Full-screen DOS into the clipboard in text format. I am able to intercept the PrintScreen Key by implementing a keyboard hook. My question is how do I convert the text format data on the clipboard into a bitmap file? Can I store the text data in a buffer, create a bitmap, and draw text data on the bitmap? Could you give me some tips, pointers, or examples how to do this? Thank you very much in advance.
