Woop, first stable release.

Compatability

Java 1.7 and 1.8.
We could support java 1.6 but you should rather upgrade your java 🚽

Usage

Running

Run the file as an executable jar as you prefer.
Double click on it, or from the command line: java -jar ScreenCapture.jar

Using

  • Mark out an area with your mouse, and hit Enter on your keyboard.
  • If you want to redraw the rectangle, just drag out a new one.
  • To exit, hit Escape on your keyboard.

Plugins

Where you run the program determines the location of your config.txt file.
If you delete it, it will be remade the next time you run the program.
The syntax is as follows:

# Comments start with a hashtag '#' as the first character on a new line.
url://path.jar com.package.Class
internal com.package.Class

If a plugin comes along with the ScreenCapture program, it uses internal instead of a url.
To link to a local file, you use the file:// scheme.
This is the default config file:

# ScreenCapture configuration file.
# Consult https://github.com/krissrex/ScreenCapture-Plugins/wiki for help.
#
# Hashtags '#' mark a comment. 
# Paths with spaces must use %20 instead of space.
# Internal plugins that are bundled with this project do not use the URL format, but start with the word internal.
# The plugin format is as follows:
# URL package.MainClass
# Here are some examples:# file://C:/Path%20With%20Spaces/SamplePlugin.jar com.sample.plugin.package.PluginMain
# http://www.somedomain.com/SamplePlugin.jar com.sample.plugin.package.PluginMain

# The order of the plugins matter, as they are executed from top to bottom.

# Default file saving plugin
internal com.polarbirds.screencapture.plugin.bundled.FileSaver

Downloads

For using it, you only need ScreenCapture.jar
If you want to develop plugins, you can download the Plugin.jar and its source.
