Well, you could use a shell script and a command line tool, but
I don't think you'll get the mouse pointer. (I don't)
Something like:
#!/bin/sh
i=0
while [ 1 ]; do
sleep 1
#import -window root image$i.jpg
scrot image$i.jpg
let i=$i+1
done
import is from imagemagick, scrot might be faster.
If you find the right tool, I'll be interested to know.
Good luck,
Romain
