Collect screenshots bash script

[John Carruthers]

Doug,

I just wanted to give you an update.  Things are progressing well with the
script.  I've addressed the issues you raised about the dodgey if statement
and workspaces being off by default.  I've also made some structural
changes to the way the script runs and added more comments, so hopefully
it'll be easier to maintain in future.

I'm doing the dev work in a VM but when it's complete I'll test it on
hardware as well .  I'll also test it against the 13.10 beta in a VM.

I'll let you know if any problems arise.
