That's what I use. As to the paste-and-open in Irfanview, I get that done
from a shortcut on my startmenu. My bat file uses a couple of the ops
described in Irfanview's commandline helpfile, "i_options.txt."
: \path\i_view32.exe /one /clippaste /convert=F:\pngapps\tout\clip.png /bpp=8
: \path\i_view32.exe F:\pngapps\tout\clip.png
Although this batch initally saves the shot to disk, it overwrites the
previous one. I don't have sequential autonaming set up, since it's my
needs to desciptively name the screenshot and put it somewhere specific
each time.
Irfanview autosaves where and how you wish. It offers a hotkey. I don't know
what client window snapping is? My shortcut with Irfanview serves me just
right. Especially I like not having to keep something loaded. Nor remember
a hotkey (I have poor memory and need to see menu thing to know about them).
There is only one thing that would help. Occasionally alt-prntscreen serves
to get what I want. Most of the time, on the other hand, things are two-
step. First I hit printscreen. Then I copy the part I want from Irfanview;
and hit my Irfanview batch shortcut again, to have the area I want.
Sometimes this is inevitable, different circumsances like wanting to get
variable areas with a couple of windows into the shot, etc.
Yet often the reason I have to do two-step is because of wanting the client
window screen together with a menu that is dropped down. That's impossible
when you hit alt-printscreen on the keyboard. So for that, I have to hit
printscreen, then crop, and paste as a new image. It's been on the back of
my todo list for a while, to see if I should set up something to make this
situation single step.
I'd have to read to be sure that I can't find options in Irfanview's
commandline params to set that up. Or, perhaps, I should get around to
seeing if MWSnap or similar can serve my basic needs in that. That is,
the automaticcapture and paste of client window + a dropped-down menu.
