I'm looking for something to the equivalent of .  It's an animated gif screen capture tool. I use it mainly for capturing QA bug reports during development.

I've seen animated GIF images of screen casts (like the one below) promoted a few times on this site as a way to improve answers.    What toolchain is being used to create these? Is there a program that does this automagically, or are people taking screencasts, converting them into a series of static frames, and then creating the GIF images?

I'm looking for a LaTeX code sniffer and/or code beautifier, because I'm creating a CI server for my LaTeX books and I wanted a few things. :D

I'm trying to mass convert a handful of .tif files. I found phatch could look like a good candidiate but I'm running Ubuntu 11.04. Looks like they don't have a .deb for my version.  Anyone have any alternatives to phatch or any other recommendations as to quickly batch convert tif to jpeg files.  I'm looking for a non-Photoshop (ala Wine) solution.

I am looking for a tool that lets me select any pixel on the screen and get its RGB color and absolute (x, y) location.  I have used tools on Windows that show a large magnified square with a crosshair letting me easily select the pixel I want and get its details.  Is there anything like this for ubuntu?

Anyone seen this panel? Essential for precise modeling.

As part of my job as a web developer, I spend an amount of time doing UI prototypes to show the client. It's a pain in the behind but sometimes it has to be done.  I've seen Shuttleworth (and the design team) pump out images like this:    That's made by something called ... Something that balances on top of Adobe Air (yack!) and costs $79.  I've tried it but it kept falling over. I think it had something to do with Air not the app itself. My point is if I'm paying out for something, I want it to be native.

I've used  before but for company things it's not appropriate since it becomes public. I need something that lets me record my screen and gives me a small well encoded file that I put into dropbox.  What's my options?

I think a useful although grandiose feature would be to allow SO to run posted code snippets inside a secure sandbox (for various languages) for the purposes of: finding syntax errors, validating code, sometimes producing and posting actual results or output.   I would find this feature useful because I don't have all compilers frameworks and tools installed for which I would like to quickly try some of the unique stuff I see posted on SO. Also source code answers could be validated at deeper levels for weighting usability, etc. Also it might be great just to see the immediate results of code, inline with the posted answer, rather than mentally processing it.  The words "results" and "output" are used loosely here and could be anything from a parse tree to a step-through of code to actual console text or anything in between, whichever representation best suits the situation at hand. It could be automatic or chosen by the poster.  This feature request might seem really "out there" but it's fun to speculate about (well, for me). With recognition a lot of thought and work would have to go into it, but anything is possible if desirable.   One of the biggest challenges would be the fact code is often a fragment so running the native compiler would produce lots of errors. However syntax highlighting on SO is already a step in the right direction because it proves recognition of language features to a degree. Missing code might be mocked by a tool.

What is the best (easiest) way to take a screenshot of an running application with C++ under Windows?

I'm attempting to find motion graphics software to visually explain complex topics.  Here's an example of what I'm after:   I've looked at Houdini, After Effects, Boris, etc., but all of those products seem to be overkill for what I'm trying to do.   I'm just looking for a few standard shapes/images (and ability to import my own images) that I can move around and voice over.  (I'm using a PC)

Is there any console emulator for Windows that interprets ANSI coloring?   We use rspec and a part of our team use Windows and the special string for coloring are not very useful for them ;).

I read some articles, and seen some videos about a github project that do a sort of thing, but it's a little bit outdated things.I wanna see if this thing is possible to do, nowadays. Thanks

It often happens that I have to watch this screen for minutes:    I have no clue what's happening in the back. And I'm also not interested in watching the  for changes.  I would love to know if there's a way that gives more feedback. Preferably something I can invoke from the command line (like apt-get).

Basically I with my team are figuring out a way to block screenshots taken on our corporation's computers (Mac mostly). I have searched it extensively and found that there is something called Screen buffer which is being accessed by any screenshot taking software (eg. Snipping Tool etc). I tried to find the exact mechanism and the actual implementation of such softwares but with no luck. Also I found out that Netflix uses some kind of technology which corrupts screenshot image and blackens it. I did not find any actual mechanism or implementation to study it further. I also came across something called Hardware overlays but did not understand it properly in order to use it for actual implementation. I have considered a way to edit scancode maps in registry but I am looking for a more general way. I read a few articles for apple's FPS though. Can somebody please guide me through this? Some good resources for the same would be highly appreciated. Any particular or relevant forums or subs to discuss this are also welcome

I just can't find a decent (and free) one. What can I use?
