I don't know the details on OS X or Windows, but on X11 (eg, Linux)  
it's built in to the display protocol. I believe in Windows you  
replace or wedge the GDI library with one that writes to a virtual  
frame buffer. In OS X, as I said, it's a matter of locating the OpenGL  
textures provided by the window manager.
