RE: Screen Dump Util

["Harris, Jason" <JHarris@ESD.WA.GOV>]

I have a button that runs this with a click - 

/usr/bin/X11/import -window root dump.bmp

It saves a shot of the root window in dump.bmp.  There are options in the
man page that will do a delay, snapshot only one window, etc...   

I've always wanted to do a date command, perl it up and make the filename of
the import results datestamped like dump29012002_143900.bmp.  Is there
anyone out there that can do that in a perl-one-liner ?

Hi!

I would like to make dumps of screens/windows. Which tool in Debian Potato
do you recommend (it should also support different color depths)? (I know
there is GIMP, but this one is rather large and I'm looking for something
smaller in size).

Thanks for your help!

Regards,
