Well, some development. The "script" which I modified as such: $>cat bin/importscreen.sh #!/bin/sh scrot -s '%Y-%m-%d_$wx$h.png' -e 'mv $f ~/documents/shots/$f' feh ~/documents/shots/$f #feh wants to be on it's own line. works fine on it's own when used from the shell prompt. In my .cwmrc conf I have this: command shot "/home/marst/bin/importscreen.sh" bind 4-p "/home/marst/bin/importscreen.sh" The first line (command) works fine, I can select "shot" from the cwm menu, the shot is taken, moved and feh shows the picture taken. But the second line (bind) is not responding. Trying a shorter command with scrot only will not work neither. It will not let me select a rectangle area. It would only work if I remove the -s switch. cwm has been restarted, no error found in .xsession-errors. I guess I can live with that. But I wish I could bind a key somehow. Mario
