SYNOPSIS
========
fbdump [*-fb <device>*] [*-vt <terminal>*] [*-delay <sec>*]
DESCRIPTION
===========
fbdump is a simple tool that captures the contents of the visible portion
of the Linux framebuffer device and writes it to the standard output as
a PPM file. In other words, it takes a screenshot of anything running on
the framebuffer. It currently has fairly complete support for packed-pixel
framebuffer types and also works with the VGA16 framebuffer driver.
OPTIONS
=======
**-fb** *device*
Path to the framebuffer device to dump. Default: */dev/fb0*.
**-vt** *terminal*
Bring virtual terminal number *terminal* to the foreground before dumping.
Default: dump current foreground terminal.
**-delay** *sec*
Wait *sec* seconds before dumping. Default: dump immediately.
--help
Display usage and exit.
EXAMPLES
========
To dump the framebuffer as a PNG image:
fbdump | pnmtopng > grab.png
