If you hit Alt+Print (I think it was Alt, perhaps it could also be Shift or Ctrl) will make a screenshot of the selected window in the foreground under Gnome. This is this very usefull and make a screenshot of a special region redundantly for me.

But you can use Gimp, Gimp can also make screenshots from a special region of your screen.

You can also make videos by using XvidCap. It can record a special region of your screen. Works a little bit buggy, but it is very usefull and works good.

Does anybody know if there is a similar tool to MWSnap but for Linux?
Or how I could write such a tool using Free Pascal/Lazarus?

The feature I am really looking for is the "Any area" snap mode.  When
you select that snapping mode, you can then draw a rectangle anywhere
on the screen/desktop and it will snap that rectangle to
file/clipboard.

At the moment under Ubuntu, I can take a full screen or full window
screenshot.  I then need to open Gimp so I can crop the image to only
show the specific area of interrest.  MWSnap with the "Any Area" mode
does all this in a single step.
