[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Taking screenshots

[From: Eero Tamminen]

Hi,

Easiest way to use this is to add the following line:
escape=!/usr/bin/osso-screenshot-tool /home/user/MyDocs/.images/shot.png

To the "/etc/matchbox/kbdconfig" file and reboot the device.

Then whenever you press the Back HW key (below the cursor keys),
you get a screenshot saved into your image-folder from where you can:
- View it with the Images application,
- Copy it to the MMC with the File Manager, or
- Use E-mail to send it to your PC.

This doesn't work when menus or the device power dialog are
open because they grab the keyboard and thus prevent window
manager from catching the key presses.
