OK, here's where we are with this.
1. The patches to syscons have been applied to -current. I'll MFC
them to -stable in a week or so (they work fine, my test machine
runs 4.3-RC2, and the patch applied cleanly).
If you want the patches before then, get them from
http://people.freebsd.org/~nik/syscons2.diff
2. scrshot(1) has been committed to -current. There is some
discussion about whether or not the feature should be merged in to
vidcontrol instead. I don't care one way or the other. Again,
I'll merge this to -stable in a week or so.
If you want it before then, the files can be grabbed from the web,
at
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/usr.bin/scrshot/
3. ports/graphics/shot2png has been committed. Run it in conjunction
with scrshot,
scrshot /dev/ttyv0 | shot2png > shot.png
It parses syscons font files, see shot2png(1) for more.
If the port distfile is unfetchable, grab it from
http://people.freebsd.org/~nik/shot2png-1.0.tar.gz
Sample PNG files are at
http://people.freebsd.org/~nik/shot1.png
shot2.png
shot2-thin.png
That last shot was created by using the same source file, but
using the cp850-thin-8x16.fnt file, instead of the default font
file.
4. ports/textproc/shot2txt will follow shortly.
When the MFCs are complete I'll add these to the docproj meta-port.
Enjoy.
