Description

A command-line tool for taking screenshots directly from the Linux framebuffer. It is useful on systems without a full desktop stack, embedded devices, consoles, or early-boot diagnostic environments.

Use it when graphical screenshot tools are unavailable or inappropriate. It captures the framebuffer state and may require permissions to read framebuffer devices.
