[Elecraft] Application to capture SVGA screen (P3) info in a file format?

[Alan Bloom]

P3 Utility automatically copies the BMP screen image to the Windows 
clipboard.  So you can just open your favorite graphics software and 
paste it in.  I generally just use the "Paint" program that comes free 
with Windows.  From Paint you can save it in PNG, JPEG, GIF or TIFF format.
