Summary: Export function and snapshots in debug

Initial Comment:
If possible, is there anyway to save snapshots of 
what is currently on the screen? If you could possibly 
do so, I would like that.

Also, and export feature in the debugger. Lets say 
you are in room 1 of Zak McKracken, and you want 
to export the background, you should have a function 
that will allow you to do that. The same for the 
costume files, only the costume files will be 
precompiled already. and since youhave a script 
decompiler, maybe you can have something export 
the raw script out of the game.

Dumping things which are not scripts is possible by modifying the 
ScummVM source. But we probably won't supporting it as a 
regular feature, ever, as it's simply not part of ScummVM's goal 
(namely to allow the user to play old Scumm games).

Screen shot function has already be requested in other feature 
requests.

Dumping is easy. Recompile ScummVM with the 
DUMP_SCRIPTS define, and make a subdirectory 
called 'dumps'. All game files will be dumped in that directory 
as they are used.

This requires a recompile as it is a developer-only feature. We 
assume that people who are unable to compile it do not have 
the tools to decompile the game data anyway.

A screenshot feature sounds look a good idea, I'll look into it.
