A small utility to capture the current terminal window and put the image to the clipboard to easily share the output.

📸 CapTer: Capture your Terminal easily and share it with anyone

capter is a command line utility that lets you capture your current terminal wi an application name and window title in order to take a screenshot of a specific window.

Justification and Use Case

Many times when I am working on some project and want to share my terminal output with someone. The process included taking the screenshot using the keyboard shortcut, finding the screenshot, copying the screenshot and then finally sharing. I thought why not create a small utility to make the process shorter and hence I created this.

To that end, I use this utility to generate and share screenshots of my terminal.

Example

Just type capter in the terminal and that's it. Take a screenshot of the current Terminal window and it gets copied to the clipboard automatically:
