Similarly you could include a KeyQuencer script within your MacPerl script
(kinda like you do with Applescript) that could do the capture using
KeyQuencer's 'CopyScreen' command. By default it copies to the clipboard
but it also allows for copying to a PICT file. You can specify that the
whole screen be copied or just the frontmost window, or have KeyQuencer
prompt you to make a rectangular selection with your mouse, or you can
include the specific rectangular coordinates in your code.
