For PC-Windows (WFWG and Win95), one can simply select the widget and hit
Alt-PrintScreen. This puts the current window (the widget) into the clipboard,
which can be pasted into the graphics program of your choice. Of course,
it would be nice to have a platform independent IDL function which would put
the widget into a pixmap...maybe in IDL 5?
