    let hwnd = find_window("Notepad").unwrap();
    let s = capture_window(hwnd, Area::Full).unwrap();

    let re = Regex::new(r"Firefox").unwrap();
    let hwnd = window_list()
        .unwrap()
        .iter()
        .find(|i| re.is_match(&i.window_name))
        .unwrap()
        .hwnd;
    let s = capture_window(hwnd, Area::Full)
        .unwrap();
