If you have media-gfx/imagemagick installed, you could use a bash script
like this:

#!/bin/bash
# I am "/bin/print.sh"

var_name=`date +%s`
import "${HOME}/screenshots/${var_name}.png"
display "${HOME}/screenshots/${var_name}.png"
unset var_name
exit
#EOF

Save this script somewhere in your $PATH and bind a key to it. I use it
in xfce-4.

Hi Daniel,

Tks for your advice.

> If you have media-gfx/imagemagick installed

I don't have it installed.

I tried to do it on M$Windows way by pressing [PrintScreen] and paste the image on .doc or on Gimp, but following warning popup
There was an error running "gnome-screenshot":
Failed to execute child process "gnome-screenshot" (No such file or directory).
* end *

Is there any way to fix it.

TIA

You do take screenshots in GIMP.
