All my previous questions answered completely, so far. Praise Isis, praise 
Osiris, all hail Runrev. Here's another one.

>From the dictionary entry for "import snapshot":

I tried the command "import snapshot"

It does produce draggable crosshairs. When I drag the crosshairs, I get a black 
rectangle. When I let go of the mouse, I do get a new image with the dimensions 
of the dragged rectangle. However, the new image is merely a black rectangle.

Oops. I just tried it again. This time, the new image is not a black rectangle. 
It seems to contain digital static.

I have been dragging over an image on the active LC card. I just tried it as if 
a screenshot, a shot of the desktop. Same thing happens.

The OS screenshot works okay, and I can use LC to import or reference the saved 
screenshot.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

Tim
