     -C      Capture the cursor as well as the screen.	Only allowed in non-interactive modes.

     -i      Capture screen interactively, by selection or window.  The control key will cause the screen shot to go to the clipboard.	The space
	     key will toggle between mouse selection and window selection modes.  The escape key will cancel the interactive screen shot.

     -m      Only capture the main monitor, undefined if -i is set.

     -M      Open the taken picture in a new Mail message.

     sudo launchctl bsexec $PID screencapture [options]
