Do you mean like the "Print" button? For X windows use...
See IM Examples... X Windows Input

I myself use a shell script to save the the current window into a file, then jiggle to the window to say 'I'm done'
It works well for me
Code: Select all
convert x:root image.pnghttp://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/files/#x

x: is available for *nix only, if you are running windows then there is no such option, you'd have to go with one of the API's. (afaik, please correct if wrong)
