Default SuSe

Mucks, I found that SuSe has another way to day a screenshot.

Go to the SuSe start button and choose Utilities-Desktop-KSnapshot.

Set the "save as" and where first, set the delay and screen, and Snap.

Yeah, tried that one ... took 15 'snaps' before I got the right window.

I need practice.

... you do know that ALT+PrintScreen works as well.

and you can Paste it into OpenOffice.

I'm proud to announce that my HP Officejet works with Suse 9.3, and my Lexar Multimedia Card Reader works.
I'm going to work on making SuSe my main OS.

This bash script allows you to take x number o screenshots and it resizes them to 800x600 and stores them into a directory for you.

To run the script .... cut-n-paste the code into a text editor (KATE) ...... and then save to your desktop as screenshooter.sh

open a terminal (command line interface .... xterm, etc ) and at the command line type.........

cd Desktop
chmod a+x screenshooter.sh
sh screenshooter.sh


.........

Well err, hmmmm, yes, now then ...

Try this one;
Open as many program windows as you like.
sort to look good on screen.
press 'Print Screen'
Open OpenOffice
Paste
Save as jpeg tiff png ... whatever.
the end.

Not being funny or trying to be sarcastic ... although that is natural for me ... but I do NOT have much command line knowledge ... Suse has some great "tools" that once found, can do all you should need to do an never really get your hands dirty. However, I will agree, some basic knowledge of the "registry" is handy to have.

Good deal, Crouse. Thank you.

I'm not adverse to running some scripts.
