Subject: Re: Screen Capture

Ah. So this seems to be a rather more limited function than the one that we
are currently providing, which is a full motion video of the screen/window.

I haven't decided yet whether I think it makes sense to have a "snapshot"
API
as a separate thing, as opposed to just capturing the video stream and
taking
a single frame out of it.
