shot-0.1.2.pet

#21 Post by Peter444 »

Hi gposil, reporting back as promised a bit slow but i had to wait for the powerlines to thaw out before i could start today

dragging shot-0.1 to the desktop in turbopup enables the window/screen capture option and both work from this icon instead of the printscreen keyboard button

also confirm shot-0.1.2 works as designed in ttuuxxx 4.2v2 puppy from the printscreen keyboard button

thanks for your help

Getting a screenshot is *so* easy using mtpaint.

At the command prompt I type

sleep 5s ; mtpaint -s

The 5 seconds I use to focus to the window I am interested in ;-)

just wondering if you could add a third option, something like 'select area to capture' which allows you to capture an arbitrary rectangle on the screen by click-n-dragging

also, if you're looking for enhancement ideas, there's an excellent freeware app called mwsnap (http://www.mirekw.com/winfreeware/mwsnap.html) - but notice the win in the winfreeware directory - that comes in at around 640ks. poke around there for an idea or two :-)
