Takes screenshots and videos of user selection, automatically uploads to a server mounted on your system, then copies the URL to your clipboard.Depends on xclip, ffmpeg, maim, mplayer, and slop.Use "seen.sh image" to capture an image, and use "seen.sh video" to start recording a video. Then use "seen.sh video" again to stop recording.I use maim …
