..talk about not enough coffee.
Indeed, I left off the browser in this example.
For the record, now that the issue is firmly solved, it should indeed be
screen links www.website.com
with the control a followed by just the letter h starting the screenshot like capture.
Did this in my dreamhost workspace, and it turned out fine.
Thanks all,
Karen

Hi folks,
Both shellworld, and dreamhost, use Ubuntu as the basis for their shell
workspaces.
Sharing that up front, as this may be tied to Ubuntu.
There is a program called screen, apparently common across some Linux
distributions.
one can create the equal of a screen shot,
screen www.website.com
followed by control a -h.
This creates a file called hardcopy, with numbers going up for each file.
However, when I run
screen www.site.com
Regardless of the site I get.
screen cannot  accept www.site.com no such file or directory screen is
terminating.
Suggesting that there must be a configuration issue since Debian users I
know  <and who have likely built there own stuff> are not encountering the
same problem.
Any tips?

screen is a terminal multiplexor, not a web browser.  You can run screen
with an argument of what program to run.  A website is not a program so
you would have to run it with some browser as an argument.  As suggested
links could work.
