Well, I assume you must have cropped your plast terminal images from a full screen shot then. ksnapshot will grab a single window. Just check the box "Only grab the window containing the pointer" box.

umm... I mean the actual terminal... without a GUI... on my server.

Ahh, I gotcha. Yes, GPM works great for this. RedHat installed the GPM service by default. If you have a mouse attached to your server you can copy and paste your console screen very easily. First press "ALT+F2" to go to your second console and start "vim" and press "i". Then switch back to virtual terminal 1 by pressing "ALT+F1". Select the entire screen with your mouse, then press "ALT+F2" and click the middle mouse button (or right mouse button). See "man gpm" for more info.

does the stuff have to be in vi (or a program)??

It can be in any program. Or you can send it straight to a file by instead of starting vim type "cat > /tmp/screenshot.txt" in virtual terminal 2. After you paste your text in virtual terminal 2 just press "CTRL+D" and your text screen capture will reside in "/tmp/screenshot.txt".
