Yes, Stan's PSCREEN is one of my personal favourites :)
Years ago, I wrote a tiny command file called flat, which captures the
terminal (Reflection) contents to a file called flat.

Here it is. Note that the .'s on line 3 and 4 are escape characters
(27), and serve only to exclude Stan's banner from the flat file.
(I hope this does not constitute copyright violation, but I got tired of
deleting the last line every time I used it :))

Regards

Neil Harvey
