Introduction
Snapper is a versatile screen capture program. It allows you to save an area of the screen as a sprite, or in PNG or JPEG format. Paint already has such a 'snap shot' facility, at least for sprites. The reason for having another program to do this job is that some of the most common tasks, like saving the contents of a window or menu, are messy using Paint, which requires the use of an imaginary rectangle and a time delay.
Snapper was originally written by David Pilling, and supplied with his scanning and image processing software suite. With the full agreement and encouragement of David, Chris Johnson has taken on the maintenance and development of Snapper, and the new version is now freely available.
A consequence of this is that all correspondence about Snapper should now be directed to Chris Johnson (Email: chris@chris-johnson.org.uk), and not to David.
