scrot: Capture a screenshot interactively.
$ scrot --select
try on your machine
The command "scrot --select" is used to take a screenshot of a specific portion of the screen selected by the user.
"scrot" is a command-line utility for taking screenshots in Linux.
The "--select" flag is used to enable the interactive selection mode, allowing the user to select a rectangular area on the screen using the mouse. Once the selection is made, the screenshot is taken and saved to a file. The file name usually follows a default naming convention, such as "screenshot-%Y-%m-%d-%H%M%S.png" (year-month-day-hour-minute-second.png), but this can be customized.
