Heh. Screenshots to standard out. Love it! :) Turns out that xwd didn't work, HOWEVER, playing around with it revealed something really curious. At first it just gave me a black thumbnail looking thing. I then switched over to the first virtual screen (I have 8 screens total) and it worked great. xwud and gimp both showed perfect single window screenshots. I then did the same thing with gimp, and by Zeus, it worked. So it appears that gimp and xwd screenshots work on the first virtual desktop. Doesn't work on any additional desktops (I think Enlightenment comes with 2 by default as shipped with Debian). Each virtual desktop has 2 "screens". OK. Problem solved. Thank you very much for suggesting that. I don't think I would've found that if you hadn't made that suggestion. And it makes it perfectly clear what package deserves the bug report. :) Now I'll just sit back and let Google index this thread for future generations. :) Thanks, Carol. You're awesome!
