Using a window manager and want to take screenshots? Tired of bloated programs with features you'll never ever use? Try scrot, a poorly-named but excellent command-line screenshot tool for Linux. I'll show you how to make screenshots, save them to a directory, clip a certain part of the screen, capture a single window, and bring it all together with a bash script.
