+which is used to save the image.

+.SH "SPECIAL STRINGS"
+Both the
+.B \-\-exec
+and
+.I FILENAME_PATTERN
+parameters can take format specifiers that are expanded by
+.B scrotty
+when encountered. There are two types of format specifier.
+Characters preceded by a \(aq%\(aq are interpretted by
+.BR strftime (3).
+These options may be used to refer to the current date and
+time. The second kind are internal to
+.B scrotty
+and are prefixed by \(aq$\(aq or \(aq\\\(aq. The following
+specifiers are recognised:
+.PP
+$i      framebuffer index
+.br
+$f      image filename/pathname (ignored in FILENAME_PATTERN)
+.br
+$n      image filename          (ignored in FILENAME_PATTERN)
+.br
+$p      image width multiplied by image height
+.br
+$w      image width
+.br
+$h      image height
+.br
+$$      expands to a literal \(aq$\(aq
+.br
+\\n      expands to a new line
+.br
+\\\\      expands to a literal \(aq\\\(aq
+.br
+\\       expands to a literal \(aq \(aq (backslash, space)
+.PP
+A space that is not prefixed by a backslash in
+.B \-\-exec
+is interpreted as an argument delimiter. This is the case
+even at the beginning and end of the string and if a space
+was the previous character in the string.
+.SH RATIONALE
+Taking screenshots was a pain before this. Screenshots
+are useful if you want to remember something or send an
+image of how something looks.
