Drag and drop Screenshots in linux? June 8, 2007
Posted by hunterp in linux, mac, UI.1 comment so far
Taking screenshots are an intensely valuable asset in a computing workforce. On a mac, I can press ctrl-alt-shift-f4 and drag my mouse to take a screenshot directly into the clipboard. Then in a mail, or IM program I can directly paste it. This is basically two steps.
In linux, I have to take a screenshot. Crop it in gimp. Then manually include it in an thunderbird, and I can’t even see the image. This is way to many steps.
So is there a way to do this on linux?

i think i’ve come to terms with gentoo (provided:it meets some simple requests i have)
When it facilitates a way to make a binary-only distribution, and keeps popular ones in web caches for easy download. Gentoo may indeed be good as a distro behind distro’s

I deleted maillog and quickly touch maillog and restarted sendmail, but still no logging. Being the beautiful rh9 (its 2005) system that it is, theres no lsof. So in proc i ls -l [0-9]*/fd/ | grep maillog, and luckily, syslogd was trying to access maillog [deleted], so restart that and all is well.
