Raspberry Screen shots - Brian Beuken - 02-25-2018

My students are working on a Raspberry Pi project and one of them was looking for a nice screen grab program. Its not as easy to do as it might seem since the Raspberry does not use X11 to display its screens, instead it uses Broadcom's Dispman system. 

but there is a great package I used for all my raspberry screen shots. fast, effective and once set up, very reliable.

Use Raspi2png

you can get it here

clone the rep, compile it, and its there when you need it, its especially useful to activate it from an SSH console.
