Yes, links is the browser to which I am referring.
As stated, I am attempting to help a site owner troubleshoot an issue, that I
experience using links, the browser. I know a great deal about running this
browser, but have never needed to capture information for someone else, who
relies on sight, instead of speech.
If there is not a clear screenshot command, then perhaps the trace file
generated by lynx the cat, another browser, will help them.

Hi Karen
When you refer to 'links' in the subject, do you mean the browser
documented at:
http://links.twibright.com/user_en.html
The version of this browser in Debian stable is 2.21.
Is that what you are asking about?
If I look at the website of that project, it does have some screenshots,
but they look like they are all created outside of links itself.
When I read through the above documentation trying to help you, I did
not notice any mention of screenshots.
It is difficult to help you further without a more specific description of
exactly what you are asking.
For example...
The 'links' software can be run either:
1) natively in a GUI (graphical user interface)
2) in a virtual terminal running in a GUI
3) in a Linux console using a text UI
Screenshots can be made in any of those situations, but the method of
taking a screenshot will depend on which of those user interfaces you are
using.
If using #3, I would try running 'links' inside 'screen', which according
to its manpage offers a keystroke to "write a hardcopy of the current
window to a file", although I have not tested it.
'screen' is packaged for Debian.
Are you using Debian?
Similar comments might apply if you mean something different by 'links', as
I asked in my opening question.
Further assistance or more specific guidance might be possible if you
provide the information requested.
I remain hopeful that you will reply to my previous message.
