Taking Screenshots With the Terminal
Hi,
So this is kind of a bizarre request: Is there a way I can get the Terminal to take 30 successive screenshot images over the course of 2 seconds? I figure you can do almost anything through the terminal, so I'm hoping this is possible, too. Truthfully, I don't know that much about Unix, and I'm not even sure if I've been explicit enough in my request. Please ask for clarification if needed!
Thank you!
