Nice simple screen capture utility
Dan Thompson

I find it quite useful. It's the only way I know of to "capture" part of an image or text to be able to just print that portion. The problem is, you can only "capture" what currently shows on your screen. Wondering if there is a newer version

PrintKey 2000 erstellt Screenshots. Mit [Alt]+[Druck] wird das aktuelle Fenster, mit [Druck] der gesamte Bildschim abgelichtet. Das Highlight: Es kann selbst definiert werden, welchen Bereich man als Screenshot haben möchte und zusätzlich ist die Farbtiefe (Dategröße) wählbar, etc
