Screenshot tool for Linux.
Supports both X11 and Wayland.
People told me that it also works on Windows and partially on MacOS.
Since I'm not using neither MacOS or Windows at all there are no any guarantees related to these platforms.
If you want to add a support for MacOS or Windows - PRs are welcome.
cargo install birdy --lockedCurrently it can be run only through "birdy" executable(from terminal, app launcher(e.g. rofi), bound to a hotkey):
# makes a screenshot of the selected area and saves it into clipboard
birdy
# makes a screenshot of the selected area with a custom drawn items color, from screen with id=1 and saves it into $HOME/Pictures
birdy -b 0,255,0,255 -s 1 -d $HOME/Pictures
# e.g. sway
sway bindsym $mod+Shift+p exec birdy
birdy --help
