you could probably also use gvidcap/xvidcap and split the video to jpegs using ffmpeg...(,) On Wed, Mar 19, 2008 at 9:33 PM, Frank Shute [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Tue, Mar 18, 2008 at 03:37:05PM -0700, Bill Campbell wrote: On Tue, Mar 18, 2008, Patrick Dung wrote: Hello As title, I have tried xwd, it can't capture mouse curosr.

The import program that's part of the ImageMagick port can do so: import image.png Then draw a box around whatever you want to screen shot.
