To take screen shots in a virtual console, use cat to save the
contents of the device file corresponding to that virtual
console, these files are in the `/dev' directory, and are in
the format `vcsi<number>', where "number is the number of
the virtual console".
For ex., if the target console is the first virtual console (which
you would see by typing [ALT]-[F1]), the device to cat is
`/dev/vcs1'.
To take a screen shot of the first virtual console, and save it to a
file called `virtual1', type:
$ cat /dev/vcs1 > virtual1 [RET]
NOTE: You have to be Superuser to access these files.
