Window Recorder
==

A way to create movies of the contents of windows in Shell.

Usable from the command line.

==

A basic example:

    $ ./init.sh browser-recording/
    $ ./make-movie.mp4.sh
    $ mplayer movie.mp4

Creates movie.mp3.

This is how you use the library:

    $ ./init.sh new-movie/ # Initialize tmp/ and mount var/
    $ ./run # Record window frames
    # Sometime later...^C
    $ ./make-movie.mp4.sh # Generate movie.mp4
    $ mplayer movie.mp4
    $ ./uninit.sh # Unmount var/
    $ ./clean.sh # Remove tmp/
