-
-@command{scrotty} is a simple command for taking a screenshot
-of your framebuffers. It can be used to take a screenshot of
-your Linux TTY session, but it cannot take a screenshot of
-your X session.@footnote{Unless it is for some reason is
-rendered on the framebuffer.}
-
-@command{scrotty} is designed after @command{scrot}, but
-includes a some improvements. Namely it does not support
-delaying the screenshot, selecting image quality or creating
-thumbnails, but it as supports for adding arbitrary arguments
-to @command{convert} (from the ImageMagick project), which is
-used to save the image.
-
-@command{scrotty} reads the data stored in the framebuffers,
-convert it the PNM images and pipes it to @command{convert}
-to create PNG images.

-@node Invoking
-@chapter Invoking
-
-@command{scrotty} recognises four options:
-
-@table @option
-@item --help
-Print usage information and exit.
-@item --version
-Print program name and version and exit.
-@item --copyright
-Print copyright information and exit.
-@item --exec CMD
-Run a command for each saved image.
-@end table
-
-In addition to these options, a filename
-pattern, that does not start with a dash,
-can be added. This filename pattern selects
-with what filename the image should be saved.
-
-Further, it is possible add @option{--}
-followed by additional options to add when
-@command{scrotty} spawns @command{convert}.
-
-Both the @option{--exec} and filename pattern
-parameters can take format specifiers that are
-expanded by @command{scrotty} when encountered.
-There are two types of format specifier.
-Characters preceded by a `%' are interpretted
-by @code{strftime}. See @command{man strftime}
-for examples. These options may be used to refer
-to the current date and time. The second kind are
-internal to scrotty and are prefixed by `$' or
-`\'. The following specifiers are recognised:
-
-@table @asis
-@item `@code{$i}'
-Framebuffer index.
-@item `@code{$f}'
-Image filename/pathname.
-Ignored in the filename pattern.
-@item `@code{$n}'
-Image filename.
-Ignored in the filename pattern.
-@item `@code{$p}'
-Image width multiplied by image height.
-@item `@code{$w}'
-Image width.
-@item `@code{$h}'
-Image height.
-@item `@code{$$}'
-Expands to a literal `$'.
-@item `@code{\n}'
-Expands to new line.
-@item `@code{\\}'
-Expands to a literal `\'.
-@item `@code{\ }'
-Expands to a literal ` '.
-@end table
-
-A space that is not prefixed by a backslash in
-@option{--exec} is interpreted as an argument
-delimiter. This is the case even at the beginning
-and end of the string and if a space was the
-previous character in the string.
-
-For example,
-@command{scrotty `%Y-%m-%d_$wx$h.$i.png` --exec 'cp $f ~/.backups/shots/'}
-create a file called something like @file{2014-10-28_1792x1344.0.png}
-for your first framebuffer and @file{2014-10-28_1792x1344.1.png} for
-your second framebuffer, and copies the saved images to @file{~/.backups/shots/}.
