This was found on the SCO SOS BBS.
How do I get a console screen dump?
Give the following command, all on one line:
stty -echo ixon ixoff -ixany; /bin/echo '\033[2i' ;
cat > screen.out ; stty sane
...
Then wait approx. 10 seconds and type <ctrl>-d.   The output
is a file in the current directory called 'screen.out'.
If desired, this command can be put into a shell script, as shown below.
...
  oldstty='stty -g'
  stty -echo ixon ixoff -ixany; /bin/echo '\033[2i' ;
  head -24 >> screen.out ; stty $oldstty
...
Hope this helps.
