Version 1.8.1
[ Guilherme Janczak ] alias @guijan
* Fixed libbsd feature test confusion. Rationale: users expressed confusion
when using the old "--without-libbsd" configure flag. Some assumed that it
compiles scrot without libbsd, but it only made the build script error if
libbsd is a dependency. This is useful to package maintainers: it gives them
a yes/no answer on whether the library is a dependency on their system. The
old configure flag has been replaced by a more verbose
"--enable-libbsd-feature-test".
[ Joao Eriberto Mota Filho ] alias @eribertomota
* Fixed 'make dist', adding some files to bootstrapped tarballs.

Version 0.9
* Added --autoselect rectangle option. Thanks to Stoney Sauce
<stoneysauce@gmail.com>.
* Added --focused option. Thanks to James Cameron <quozl@us.netrek.org>.
* Added an autogen.sh file.
* Added some explanation about how to help the project.
* Character cleanup for UTF-8 compatibility. Thanks to William Vera
<billy@billy.com.mx>.
* Fixed a missing option for beep prevention. Thanks to Ibragimov Rinat
<ibragimovrinat@mail.ru>.
* Fixed spelling errors in final binary. Thanks to William Vera
<billy@billy.com.mx>.
* Improved the autotools (acinclude.m4, configure.ac, Makefile.am and
src/Makefile.am).
* Improved the GCC hardening.
* Prevent arbitrary long file names. Thanks to George Danchev
<danchev@spnet.net>.
* Several fixes in manpage.
Wed Mar 12 13:20:11 GMT 2003 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Patch from Claes Nasten <pekdon@gmx.net>
* Enhances thumbnail related options:
"First, specifying -t would break the $f param to -exec.
Second, the thumbnail and the screenshot got different timestamps.
Third, one weren't able to specify geometry with -t.
I fixed those and added, $m ( mini, instead of $t as it was taken ) so
that one can do.
$ scrot -t 91x0 -e 'echo $f,$m'
2003-03-08-104735_800x600_scrot.png,2003-03-08-104735_91x68_scrot-thumb.png`
About the geometry, having either the width or height set to 0 makes it
fill in the other pertaining the aspect ratio.
"
* Once I update the docs I'll release 0.8
Tue Feb 25 13:13:03 GMT 2003 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Update for latest giblib. Requires latest release now.
* release 0.7
Sat Feb 23 12:37:29 GMT 2002 Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Patch from Eric Z. Ayers <eric.ayers@compgen.com>
* Changes the cursor to a bottom left corner when you start to drag to
select a grab region.
Thu Jan 11 17:43:19 2001 Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Patch from Michael Roberts <m.t.roberts@student.murdoch.edu.au>
to add -t, --thumb option to generate thumbnails. I modified it a
little, specify the percentage size of the thumbnail on the
command line.
Mon Dec 4 23:46:03 2000 Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Added -m, --multidisp, which is for multiple heads (not xinerama)
grabs shots from each and joins them together.
* Fixed doing the string escapes when saving files. My bad.
Sun Nov 12 15:16:40 2000 Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Now uses giblib. You'll need the very latest giblib from CVS as
of right now.
Sun Nov 5 02:17:57 2000 Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Beep when about to take the shot.
* Added -b, --border to grab wm borders too.
* Ungrab mouse, keyboard before sleeping for --delay.
* -e 'feh &f' is not intuitive. Can't use '%' cos that's reserved
for strftime, so now the internal format specifiers are prefixed
'$'. Trouble is, you now _must_ use '', not "", or the shell will
interpret the $ sign and perform variable
substitution. Suggestions?
* Purged boring debugging shit.
Mon Oct 30 18:54:05 2000 Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* I can't be arsed to type all this again, so here's the new
manpage entries:
* If [file] is not specified, a date-stamped file will be
dropped in the current directory.
* SPECIAL STRINGS
Both the --exec and filename parameters can take format
specifiers that are expanded by scrot when encountered.
There are two types of format specifier. Characters
preceded by a '%' are interpreted by strftime(2). See man
strftime for examples. These options may be used to refer
to the current date and time. The second kind are internal
to scrot and are prefixed by '&' The following specifiers
are recognised:
&f image path/filename (ignored when used in the filename)
&n image name (ignored when used in the filename)
&s image size (bytes) (ignored when used in the filename)
&p image pixel size
&w image width
&h image height
&t image format
&& prints a literal '&'
\n prints a newline (ignored when used in the filename)
EXAMPLE
scrot '%Y-%m-%d_&wx&h.png' -e 'mv &f ~/shots/'
This would create a file called something like
2000-10-30_2560x1024.png and move it to your shots directory.
Sun Oct 29 01:02:16 2000 Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Added -q, --quality for setting compression quality.
Fri Oct 27 21:01:45 2000 Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Added -s, --select. Let's you pick which window to grab by
clicking on it, or you can draw a rectangle and grab that area :-)
Also, while scrot has the mouse grabbed, hitting any key will
cancel the shot and release it.
* Plus, something import won't do, if you set a delay, you can
choose the window or area first, then the delay occurs before the
shot is taken.
Thu Oct 26 20:37:08 2000 Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Patch from richlowe to show countdown with delay (-c,
--count). Cheers bud.
Thu Oct 26 15:22:22 2000 Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Added -d, --delay option to wait before shooting.
Thu Oct 26 14:09:52 2000 Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@linuxbrit.co.uk>
* Created scrot.
