Screenshot tool for Gnome

on ubuntu

Desktop Data Manager is superb tool; providing a clipboard manager, a screenshot taking app that allows you to select regions and a reasonable download manager. I mainly use the screenshot tool at the moment.

From their page:

Clipboard Manager

  • Clipboard history for a customized number of entries

  • Separate list for CLIPBOARD (Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V) and PRIMARY (Middle Mouse Button)

  • Displays text and images inline

  • Converts HTML/FTP/… links (in fact any link that is supported through GnomeVFS) to images which can be pasted into any application

  • Images can be pasted as a new file by simply using Ctrl+V

  • Customizable keyboard shortcuts

  • Extensible through plugins

Screenshot-Taking Applications

  • Take screenshots of single window, single subwindow, selected rectangle or the whole desktop

  • Seamless operation with the clipboard manager

** Download Manager**

  • Continuation (Pause and Continue downloads)

  • Threaded/Segmented downloading

  • HTTP/HTTPS/FTP protocol support

  • MD5/SHA1 checksum calculation

  • Downloading from multiple mirrors

What sets DDM apart from Klipper/Glipper/…

  • Inline display of images

  • “Creators” enable Copy and Paste for files and their content in both direction (see screenshots page for details)

  • Screenshot-Taking Application enables copy of mages out of e.g. a PDF files directly into any other application or in a file
