SYNOPSIS

9       spectacle [Spectacle options]

DESCRIPTION

12       spectacle is a simple application for capturing desktop screenshots. It
13       can capture images of the entire desktop, a single monitor, the
14       currently active window, the window currently under the mouse, or a
15       rectangular region of the screen. The images can then be printed, sent
16       to other applications for manipulation, or quickly be saved as-is.
