Screen Captures

Mike_112 — Thu, 18 May 2000 19:03:25 GMT

I am running HP-UX 11.0 I need to get some screec captures. My old 10.2 box had another capture utility that allowed me to save as a tiff file. Does anyone know how I can get screen captures other than xwd? I can't find the other utility on this box.

Hi,

there's also a fine tool called xv which can handle a lot of bitmap types.
Look at

Good luck

Andrew

- for an interactive and graphical manipulation of images, capture, and save to files, use xv (everything available from http://www.trilon.com/xv/). Very good software for image capture, manipulation, and conversion between different formats (especially to postscript for printing).

- If you want a line command for capturing windows and converting them to differents formats, use the 'import' command from a package called 'ImageMagick' (informations and software available from http://www.wizards.dupont.com/cristy/ImageMagick.html). This pacakge allows you to choose the window to capture, either by pointing to it with the mouse, either by window ID, and still many features.
