boxcutter is a simple command line-driven screenshot program. Unlike using the "Print Screen" key, boxcutter allows the user to screenshot a smaller portion of the screen by dragging a box. boxcutter can also be executed NOT from the command line, in which case it will by default place a screenshot onto the clipboard.

usage: boxcutter [OPTIONS] [OUTPUT_FILENAME]

Saves a screenshot to 'OUTPUT_FILENAME' if given. Only output formats ".bmp" and ".png" are supported. If no file name is given, screenshot is stored on clipboard by default.

OPTIONS -c, --coords X1,Y1,X2,Y2 capture the rectange (X1,Y1)-(X2,Y2) -f, --fullscreen capture the full screen\n
-h, --help display help message

boxcutter-fs is a minimal Windows command line screenshot application. It requires and accepts a single argument: the file name to store the screenshot. Nothing is echoed to the console. If the program exits on 0, it was successful. If not, the program failed. Screenshots are stored as uncompressed bitmaps. This program is useful for very quick fullscreen screenshots.

usage: boxcutter-fs OUTPUT_FILENAME

Saves a bitmap screenshot to 'OUTPUT_FILENAME'.
