Ease of Use in RHEL6+ for import.. Howto ?
Posted: 2017-09-27T07:15:06-07:00
hi
I love the import command. I have been a avid user of Linux for over 22 years now, and also started dabbling into OSX (not macOS) recently.
In a mac
Shift-Alt-4 => changes the mouse to a cross hair (similar to import) and you can click OR select area (similar to import), and the file is saved to a auto-generated filename in ~/Desktop/
Ctrl-Shift-Alt-4 => does exactly the above, but instead of saving it to a file, it copies the image in the "CLIPBOARD"
How can I do this exact thing with imagemagick-import.
If I can figure the command/options, I can configure similar shortcut in my X-session.
Any clues/hints/help
