# lqth
**Lqth (لقطه) which means "shot" or/and "capture" in Arabic** is a simple but blazingly fast screenshot utility
inspired by [xscreenshot](https://git.codemadness.org/xscreenshot) and follows the suckless philosophy...(AHM, ahmmmm)... most of it :).

## Examples
The boring way:
```rust
use lqth::*;
let tick = TickTick {
dpy_addr: DpyAddr::Current,
win: Window::Root(0),
mode: Mode::Full,
};
let mut buf = Vec::new();
tick.tick(&mut buf).unwrap();
```
Just take a screenshot for the full screen!
```rust
use lqth::LqthConfig;
let mut out = std::io::stdout().lock();
// ok!
().tick(&mut out).unwrap();
```
## The binary?
> Nah, am a norme person and I don't wanna write code in this language to JUST TAKE A SCREENSHOT, can you give me a JW solution?
We offer a simple binary that's implement the most of this crate features. You can build it with the build command or if u use cargo then you can install it via `cargo install lqth`.
> [!Note]
> for more information about the binary and how to use it, you can run `lqth -h` or see this [document](./docs/bin.md).
## Wayland?
Nah, I luv my X.
