that the screensaver so activated by prtscr was xscreensaver because of
a message in the puppy forum, but I can't figure out how to use whatever
has been activated with prtscr.Â* So far I have only been able to go back
to the default cursor with prtscr again, but nothing is in the clipboard
for mtpaint with that sequence.


Some kind of screenshot is activated when PrtScr is used because the
cursor changes and it can draw a selection; but having drawn that
selection, the cursor is still in the drawing mode, and doesn't change
with a R click.

Fatdog default also includes an mtpaint snapshot tool which will
faciliate a screenshot with onscreen instructions.Â* That is found in the
graphics subsection of the menu.
