Pup-Shots Screenshot Utility

#1 Post by ttuuxxx »

Pupshots is a advanced screenshot utility that I came up with during the 2.14x build and MinHundHettePerro improved some of the features, like time adjustments and depending on your screen resolution it will display a full view like below but if your using a eeepc then it will give you a image reduced version that will fit your screen. The end result of this group effort was the best screenshot utility ever to hit Linux or at least on puppy :)

The package below Pup-Shots.pet is all you need to install, It contains the following files
-Pup-Shots
-imlib2-1.4.2
-giblib-1.2.4
-scrot-0.8

Packages were compiled on 4.3.1
dev files are just for compiling, not needed to run the application
enjoy

Can the cursor be included in the shot?

And can the user specify where the screenshot files are to be be saved?

Might I be given answers to my questions above?
In general, I've kept using Captura due to not receiving answers.

So far I've right now trial-installed this in Luci-235, but I'd like to be able to save screenshots in /00, and include the cursor in screenshots.

Questions
  • Will this work in Slacko and will it work in the 64bit PUPs?
  • Once settings are done, can I simply use the PrintScreen Key?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

It would work with slacko but for 64 bit pups you might need libgiblib, libImlib2, scrot compiled as 64 bit. I've never used a 64bit linux yet. do 32bit apps work on a 64bit pup?

Thanks @Ttuuxxx. As I understand you to say.
  1. I only need the Pup-Shots.PET for SLACKO, and
  2. YES the PrintScreen Key is handled during the installation of the PET.
Hope I'm reporting accurately from your response.

Pupshots

This is exactly what I want! Can I put an icon on the toolbar for easy access? If so how?

TX, Gord

Code: Select all

	<TrayButton icon=""></TrayButton>
add that (with an image (full path) between the quotation marks and the program name (maybe the location--sometimes the name doesn't work with pup-shots depending on where it gets installed) between the >< to the .jwmrc-tray in root. (click rox, click the eye, open with geany or leafpad). restart jwm and you'll have a button. it will appear where you place it relative to what's in the file i.e. if you place it near the thing that says "show desktop" it'll be on that side, if you place it near the end of the file above where it says clock, it'll be on the left of the clock.

puppy-reference in root has a bunch of icon files you can look through. you could also just grab a picture of a camera (or whatever you like) from the internet.

you can also give it a shortcut key or a more prominent menu entry....

Your idea for a hot key is even better! How do I create one?
Say for <Ctrl><Alt>C

Gord

Code: Select all

<Key mask="CA" key="c">exec:[name of the program]</Key>
as before, sometimes the program's name is insufficient or has a space in the path so it's more reliable to do it

Code: Select all

exec:"[path of the program]"
add that to jwm-rc personal, which is in root/.jwm, and restart jwm.

see if it works by merely restarting jwm. if not you'll have to run fixmenus in a terminal.

(take out the [ and ] )

...

on my machines the path for pup-shots is /root/.Pup-Shots/.PupShots.

you want something that looks like

Code: Select all

<Key mask="CA" key="c">exec:/root/.Pup-Shots/.PupShots</Key>


(no space in the name so no quotation marks around the path needed.) if

/root/.Pup-Shots/.PupShots entered into a terminal launches pup-shots for you, then this would work as the shortcut key you want.

Hot key

#18 Post by SilverBrun »

Thanks John. That did it! I added "smaller" to the command but didn't know how to just restart the file so I simply rebooted puppy and it works great!

thanks again.

my name's not John, but you're welcome. i'm not familiar with/not sure what you were trying to accomplish with the "smaller" command, but for future reference,

menu > shutdown > restart jwm is a lot faster than rebooting.
