Tried the scrollback first thing. In an earlier version of our ssh
client that was how I found it but sometime over the past year or two
something got upgraded and now the scrollback doesn't show it. What
happens is the program runs, tries to do what it is supposed to, which
calls two other COBOL progs and then runs a C program and then you see
the error flash and the screen is redrawn. It doesn't scroll so the
error that prints get cleared. I tried changing the font and window size
hoping it would bump things up and leave the error but no good. 

I think a capture will do it just have to download Putty and install
it.

Thanks again

What about setting your terminal's scrollback buffer to unlimited,
then save the buffer?

I know many can do this, like knosole.  I don't see the option in
gnome-terminal though.  I'm pretty sure putty has it too, but don't
have it handy to check.
