Tom, If you are running Tiger, you can use Preview to grab selected windows, I don't know if the previous version of Preview had this feature as well. But the new version has Grab inbuilt. Open Preview under 'File' is the 'Grab' function. The grab function has the following options: Selection, Window and Timed Screen. I know it does not answers your problem with the keyboard key functions, but it gives you a method to capture a screen.
