[Tip] scrot

[Augustine Souza]

@Ali and @Aere,
I've done a small write up on scrot here:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/252281/how-do-i-take-screenshots-with-a-delay

Scrot can be set up to save files to the Desktop so that the images are
right in front of you and get dealt with ASAP. Also, there's the
Alt+PrintScreen option to take a snap of just the active window. One more
tweak that scrot allows is to choose the quality of the image by use of the
-q switch. I've set up both PrintScreen (full screen) and Alt+PrintScreen
(window in focus):

PrintScreen: scrot -b -d 5 ~/Desktop/%Y:%m:%d:%H:%M:%S.png

Alt+PrintScreen: scrot -u -b -d 5 ~/Desktop/%Y:%m:%d:%H:%M:%S.png
