    Is there an method to get a text
    capture of SCFG screens; in text vs
    screen capture (graphic file) ?

    Yes, highlight the rectangle with the mouse (click and drag). The rectangle is copied to the clipboard, like this:

    Excuse the interjection, but is this exclusive to the Sysop side? As a user, I'd find this very useful. When I do a selection, I get whole lines.

    The instructions I gave are good (valid, useful) when using SyncTERM.

    are you talking about just taking screenshots?
    it depends on the client you are using.

    why not use a screenshot program to do screenshots and save them as png
    or whatever.

    Sorry, I mispoke. The original question was about capturing text from SCFG:

    Is there an method to get a text
    capture of SCFG screens; in text vs
    screen capture (graphic file) ?

    The instructions I gave are good when using SCFG.
