Well, here I am again with another question for all you gentle 
listers.

This time, I am trying to get a screen dump of a user's session 
which is running a character-based program from within a Vplus 
application.  The character-based program is run by using 
CREATE and ACTIVATE intrinsics.  The main program in the Vplus 
application closes the terminal (VCLOSETERM) prior to activating 
the character-based program, and re-opens the terminal (VOPENTERM) 
after the character-based program terminates (actually suspends). 

Anyway, when I try programmatically RUNning the PSCREEN program 
(using HPCICOMMAND) I get:


***new PSCREEN by Stan Sieler v90B    MON, APR 27, 1998, 12:43 PM

pscreen error # 13 ...
   Terminal did not respond to HP2xxx status request.
Try running PSCREEN with PARM=4 to disable HP2xxx terminal check.


and then the session hangs.  So, I tried RUNning PSCREEN with 
the PARM=4 option as indicated, and it *tries* to read the 
screen data (at least the cursor is homed in preparation for 
the data read), but then the session hangs in a terminal read 
wait.

Any ideas (other than coding my own PSCREEN in the character-based 
program)?
