I am trying to take a screenshot of a selected area. The Wiki here:

I find it curious that only Gnome, Xfce, and KDE are listed on that page...
someone should step up and flesh it out for the other common desktops,
Please!
says I can use "take screenshot" from the menu. On my menu I have
"screenshot" but it doesn't work (although I think it used to) it just
displays a tiny box which I cannot make larger.
Assuming the command line is:
gnome-screenshot -a -d 20
I tried this but the mouse pointer immediately changes to a cross and I
cannot change tasks, so all I can do is photo the terminal window.
I think something is broken. Maybe there is another utility?
I use the Mate desktop. "mate-screenshot" works great for me.
However I am surprised that it appears to only be bundled in the
mate-utils-common and mate-utils packages.
perhaps you might like the other utilities that are included.
