Hi Rich

Sorry Rich, to not provide the specific time where the very specific location/timestamp where there are some demo of that program.

And I don't title the link with that either.
- "Here the stream with the programmer program that program".   

TLDW:
There some interesting stuff in this vod, using another programming language rather than c and c++ when programming.

Maybe my written English is not the very best, sorry for that to.

socks:
Thank you all for the suggestions.

Rich,
  I new about grabber, but decided to start with windowshot so as avoid extra input parameters and focus on the task of gluing things together with a script, an area I'm very new to.
  PicFormat does indeed do an acceptable job of fractional magnification. I tested with 130% , the slight fuzziness is not distracting, so I may end up with something incorporating that and grabber.

  Following up Curaga's suggestion I came across xzoom in the form of a minor addition to xmag
I was able to test it in a TC FLWM context using dcore stretch 32 bit.
  Xzoom does everything I had hoped for and a bit more. Besides being able to resize and reposition the viewing window and the target area, one can scroll thru a long list and easily spot items of interest in the dynamic magnified view. While xzoom.sce is 20 meg or so, I suspect most of that is already in the xorg packages, so perhaps a .tcz is not too difficult to arrange.

  I wonder if it is possible to set up a dynamic connection between a target window and a display window in the FLWM context with out the aid some weighty management program?
I thought of a very primitive way to do that and did a crude initial test, but xzoom already does it with apparently not much overhead.
