Rob,

Doesn't some manipulation of the DDS keyword PRINT help stop you from at
least printing it on your host printers?


It will allow a program to regain control when Print is pressed, where you
can do what you want with it (including ignore it). And if all you used
were dumb workstations, that may be helpful. However, I think even some
dumb workstations with a printer port have a function to do a local copy of
the screen to an attached printer.

More than likely though, some emulator is being and then all bets are off.
You're not going to stop the ability of a screen capture program to grab the
screen or windows contents in bitmap form, although that can't be cut &
paste as text (but can as graphics). Or even using Windows commands to copy
the screen or window as graphics to the clipboard.
