[lug] grabbing screen shots

[Kenneth D. Weinert]

I use xwd. In general you'll have to use another tool to turn that
into a useable image format, but that depends on what format you need.

usually, for me, it's:

xwd > image.xwd
xwdtopnm image.xwd > image.pm
pnmtojpeg image.pnm > image.jpg

Computers make very fast, very accurate mistakes.
