SPECTACLE(1)                Spectacle User's Manual               SPECTACLE(1)

NAME
       spectacle - screenshot capture Utility

SYNOPSIS
       spectacle [Spectacle options]

DESCRIPTION
       spectacle is a simple application for capturing desktop screenshots. It
       can capture images of the entire desktop, a single monitor, the
       currently active window, the window currently under the mouse, or a
       rectangular region of the screen. The images can then be printed, sent
       to other applications for manipulation, or quickly be saved as-is.
