Is about running graphical applications based on LCL and MSEgui outside X-Window, in framebuffer console...
MSEgui already uses a double-buffer mecanism in painting the final bitmap on X-Window and Windows... as far as I understand... So, I will not go on top level trying to get forms saving to a bitmap... the mechanism is already present at the base of the MSEgui... just change the destination...
