NAME
     spectacle - screenshot capture Utility

SYNOPSIS
     spectacle [Spectacle options]

DESCRIPTION
     spectacle is a simple application for capturing desktop screenshots. It can
     capture  images  of the entire desktop, a single monitor, the currently ac-
     tive window, the window currently under the mouse, or a rectangular  region
     of the screen. The images can then be annotated, printed, sent to other ap-
     plications for manipulation, or quickly be saved as-is.
