[K12OSN] OT: Screen capture software

[David Hopkins]

I'll give a shot and see what she thinks.  If any of it involves a
command line anything, it is a non-starter though. :(  Have to be able
to launch everything via shortcuts, and work within a GUI.

I did get gtk-recordmydesktop to work, but it has to be run at the console.

Thanks!
