If you have ImageMagick installed, take a look at the the import(1)
command.  It will take screen shots and save the output in many differnt
formats depending on how you launch it.  For example,

$ import screen.jpg

... will turn the cursor into a cross-hair and it will take a screen
capture of whatever window you click on in JPEG format.  Not sure if
this is quite what you are looking for based on your question.
