the functions for that are executed by the menu items are accessed by
w._key_map[ord('n')]
so maybe we could add something like
try:
while True:
sample.w._key_map[ord('n')].next()()
#make screenshot
except StopIteration:
#make screenshot the normal way

Another option to html is to create wiki formatted text that we can dump
directly into the wiki mediawiki
formatting<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting>and dump them
into the db, then it'd be nicely integrated with the rest, and
we could easily link to and from the samples as the wiki grows.
I also saw there's a plugin to enable commenting on on wiki pages, so maybe
at the next stage we could make some semi-public area for people to
post/discuss/improve pieces of code.
