SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

13       Peek makes it easy to create short screencasts of a screen area. It was
14       built for the specific use case of recording  screen  areas,  e.g.  for
15       easily showing UI features of your own apps or for showing a bug in bug
16       reports. With Peek you simply place the Peek window over the  area  you
17       want  to  record  and  press "Record". Peek is optimized for generating
18       animated GIFs, but you can also directly record to WebM or MP4  if  you
19       prefer.
20
21       Peek is not a general purpose screencast app with extended features but
22       rather focuses on the single task of creating small, silent screencasts
23       of  an area of the screen for creating GIF animations or silent WebM or
24       MP4 videos.
