I could not figure out even how to print from Rdss.

Alex,
The current RDSS version, V0.99.2, the version you are using - does not print by itself. RDSS 2.0 will print, various ways.
To print RDSS screens is the same way to make images for posting online here: use a screen capture tool like ScreenHunterFree, or Snagit, or the built-in Windows SNIP tool. Google the first 2 for free or evaluation downlods, or in Windows Vista or Windows 7, simply open your Start Menu, then type 'snip' in the Search bar and the SNIP tool will open on screen, over top of whatever program you are using (e.g. RDSS).
To post an image, first capture a rectangle of the RDSS screen using your new screen capture tool, for example the BLBL screen like you see posted from time to time, then saved it as a PNG format file. Then create a post like you just did and use the Attachment icon (looks like a 'paperclip') to upload the file you just saved to your message. Then insert the file somewhere in your message and voilà - just like you see so often. (
Tip: try to make the image just the size you want to show - eliminating the surplus white space or unneeded parts of the screen will let the image be larger and clear to see).
The way to print a collection of RDSS screens, in V0.99.2, is the same technique - capture a screen rectangle then simply print it from your capture tool instead of (or in addition to) saving it as a file. You can copy a screen to the Windows clipboard using your capture tool then paste from the clipboard into a Word format, or RTF format document like WordPad or Word (or others), then when you have all the screens you want to print, simply print the whole document.
After you do this once or twice, it becomes quite fast.
RDSS 2.0 will dispense with this screen capture intermediary. The problem was/is - there are SO MANY different combinations of what you could possibly want to print: you don't want to much, and not too little - i.e. just right, which will be different for many people (and some will NEVER print).
Hope this helps - looking forward to your screen shot!
