.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
.I Xwd
|
|
|
|
is an X Window System window dumping utility.
|
|
|
|
.I Xwd
|
|
|
|
allows X users to store window images in a specially formatted dump
|
|
|
|
file. This file can then be read by various other X utilities for
|
|
|
|
redisplay, printing, editing, formatting, archiving, image processing, etc.
|
|
|
|
The target window is selected by clicking the pointer in the desired window.
|
|
|
|
The keyboard bell is rung once at the beginning of the dump and twice when
|
|
|
|
the dump is completed.
|
|
|

|
.B "-frame"
|
|

|
|
This option indicates that the GetImage request used to obtain the image
|
|
|
|
should be done on the root window, rather than directly on the specified
|
|
|
|
window. In this way, you can obtain pieces of other windows that overlap
|
|
|
|
the specified window, and more importantly, you can capture menus or other
|
|
|
|
popups that are independent windows but appear over the specified window.
