ScreenSnapper

An OS X menu-bar application for taking screenshots.

Every time I needed to take a screenshot I ended up having to google the obscure keyboard shortcut or use Grab.

This is a small application that lives in your menu bar and provides shortcuts to taking screenshots and save them to either the clipboard or a file.

ScreenSnapper in Action

Allows you to save the entire screen, a selection, or the contents of a single window.

When "Save to File" is enabled, screenshots to be saved to wherever your system screenshot location is (by default this is ~/Desktop/)

Works by simply simulating the correct system keyboard shortcut using CGEventCreateKeyboardEvent.
