NAME

     imgsnap - save all	or part	of the screen in an image file

SYNOPSIS

     /usr/sbin/imgsnap [ file ]

DESCRIPTION

     imgsnap saves a region of the screen, selected by the user, in an image
     file.  The	user may specify a file	name, choose an	image file format, and
     select either the entire screen, which is the default, or outline a
     desired area using	the mouse. The imgsnap control panel may be positioned
     as	desired	so as not to appear in the captured image. If it cannot	be so
     placed, due to the	size of	the desired capture area, for example, pushing
     the Vanish	While Saving button, before clicking on	Save, will cause the
     control panel to disappear	until the image	is saved. It will then
     reappear, and may be positioned as	desired.

     For more information please refer to IRIS Utilities Guide,	the IRIS
     ImageVision Utilities Release Notes, and the online help.
