And on the N810, you're going to have to stop and look at the picture you took before you decide you got what you intended (unlike the N800, where you should be able to see that you at least framed the subject properly). So implementing this as a second step in a process instead of an everything-in-one-package-starting-from-the-camera-click might be better anyway.

Post soon!
Well, I was figuring on aim-n-pray anyhow; I assumed whatever scriptable tool probably won't have video preview. But I suppose you could use whatever camera tool, then have the script grab (by default) the last image taken...

E-mail is probably easy for someone, so I was gonna post without and let them patch it.

What's tying me up right now is { pdf | ppm } -> jpeg conversion (other than ImageMagick; I'm trying to eliminate that dependency). Also, it'd be nice to get rotation by 90 degrees; we can check if xrandr is present, and if so, rotate according to screen alignment. But that won't hold up an initial release.

If I can't get that in a couple days at worst, I'll release a script that saves as .pdf only.

ps My apologies for the flurry of posting and unposting. Microb was on crack.
