Linux Learning (iii) screenshot tool under Linux

Generally in our keyboard has a PRINTSCREENSYSRQ key, in the Windows system, we press this button can intercept the screen, cut is the whole screen, under Linux I tried, also try to intercept the full screen, is also a screenshot of Linux comes with software, Gnome-screenshot, we can use man to see the specific usage of this command.

Here we can see some basic usage of this command.

Options
-W fetch the currently active window
-A capture a defined area
-B contains the border of the window
-B Remove Border
-d n waits after n seconds
-e Additional effect (Shadow,border,none)
-I interactive run

Some of the commonly used commands:

Gnome-screeshot is the default statement no additional option is to intercept the full screen.

GNOME-SCREENSHOT-WB intercept the current active window (to border)

gnome-screenshot-a Intercept the custom area (the image above is intercepted by this command)

gnome-screenshot-wbe shadow-d 5 5 Seconds to intercept the current window to remove the border, additional shadow effect

As we can see from the above command, these commands are combined with some of the basic options above.

With these basics, it's very convenient under Linux.
