Screen capture [is] accessible via the "screencapture" command. For example, "screencapture output.pdf". Obviously that works perfectly well in shell scripts. As for portability, AFAIK x11 methods only work under x11 so those hardly qualify as portable either. ;)
Well that's a reasonable stopgap solution and I hadn't heard of screencapture before. But if import and xwd don't work, that's a problem that should be resolved. I think these commands are meant to be portable across x11 implementations which is all I meant by portability. I'm not at all sure why the commands are not working for me; maybe someone would be willing to help me debug/troubleshoot the problem? ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: SourceForge.net Broadband Sign-up now for SourceForge Broadband and get the fastest 6.0/768 connection for only $19.95/mo for the first 3 months! http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=2562&alloc_id=6184&op=click _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
