If you compile in the jpeg factory code and start it with the
--jpg-httpd=xxxx command line switch you should be able to grab a jpeg
by loading localhost:xxxx in a browser. Is is different system than the
screen shots, so there is no popup window.

A couple cautions with this.

1. There are some subtle things about the way this works that not even the original authors fully understood/stand.

2. The jpg files you get out will be very small resolution compared to a screen shot. How to make them full size or different size was part of the issue in #1.

3. People have had problems when they built and installed this and then later didn't want to build with it. You have to remember and go delete the installed simgear header file associated with this feature, or flightgear will forever try to build with jpg-factory and complain.

Not that it's not an interesting or useful feature, just that it needs to come with some cautions.
