I don't believe there's a way to save images from within HTBasic, although there certainly should be. I use the "Snipping Tool" accessory in Windows 7 for that sort of thing. It probably exists in all versions of WIndows including 10, but who knows what they call it these days.
If you create a shortcut key for the tool, it's easy to invoke whenever needed. Hit ctrl-shift-C (in my case), wait for the tool to come up, and drag a box around the graph or other content to be cropped and saved. The image can then be saved as a .PNG, .GIF, or .JPG, or pasted directly into a document.
The RESU files saved by 3048A.BAS are similar to the .res files saved by PN3048, and PN3048 can load them directly if you select 'All files' in the file-open dialog. You can then save the graph or the entire window as a .PNG file. TimeLab ( http://www.miles.io/timelab/beta.htm ) can also import them (File->Import .RES or .PNP noise data) and save images (File->Save image or .TIM file or File->Copy image to clipboard). But if all you want is a .PNG, the snipping tool is much easier than dealing with any of this stuff.
