Use the utilities 'imgsnap' (IRIX 4.0.x only), 'scrsave', 'snapshot'
or 'xwd'. All have manpages. 'imgsnap' is in the imgtools.sw.tools
subsystem, 'scrsave' and 'snapshot' are in the eoe2.sw.gltools
subsystem, 'xwd' is in x_eoe.sw.Xapps and their manpages are in the
respective *.man.* subsystems.
From within a GL program, you should call readdisplay(). For an
example look at ~4Dgifts/iristools/imgtools/scrsave.c.
