Take screenshots in screenshot-unfriendly apps
you can also simply do this from the terminal like so:
or you can use the -c option to capture right to the clipboard. sadly, the only file format screencapture outputs is pdf.
Take screenshots in screenshot-unfriendly apps
I made a simple script to take screenshots a couple of years back, maybe when in 10.1? Anyway, I added some explanation as I uploaded for the mac user group.
It would be simple to add a variable time per use. Here are the controls for 'screencapture':
usage: screencapture [-icmwsWx] [file]
-i capture screen interactively, by selection or window
control key - causes screen shot to go to clipboard
space key - toggle between mouse selection and
window selection modes
escape key - cancels interactive screen shot
-c force screen capture to go to the clipboard
-m only capture the main monitor, undefined if -i is set
-w only allow window selection mode
-s only allow mouse selection mode
-W start interaction in window selection mode
-x do not play sounds
-S in window capture mode, capture the screen not the window
file where to save the screen capture
This is my original script:
I only tinker with Applescript but it should be easy to use a dialog to get your value and pass it to the sleep delay before running.
Probably more trouble than it is worth with the other solutions. However maybe useful is you connect remote with ssh and need to get a screen shot then bring it over with rcp.
