use screencapture instead
Use the shell command "screencapture" instead.
e.g. this applescript:
will allow you to choose what part of the screen to capture (-i) and will save the file to ~/myScreenShot.pdf Note - the file format is defined by system defaults - *not* by the extension you give - so trying myScreenshot.jpg will give you a PDF file that has a JPG extension. This also means you don't have to have the Beta UI Scripting installed. ---

to this use, your cli-utility solution is surely better; but it is nice someone shows me this feature I've only heard of before, to be able to script anything in menus. It sure is usable - even though in this case there is an easier solution..

I don't see any point in writing Applescript to do nothing but run a shell command.
If you already have terminal windows open, just type the command. If you want to be able to click on it from Finder, then just put it in a file with the extension .command, and chmod 755 it. So this, for example, would be just: echo "screencapture -i ~/myScreenShot.pdf" > sreenshot.command chmod 755 screenshot.command Why have the overhead of Applescript when you don't need it? ---

i agree with you about not using apple script to run a shell scrip but people like apple script just because they know how to add frills and stuff.
