HolzShots

A lightweight screen capturing utility that gets out of your way.

• No dedicated, cluttered settings UI – use your favorite JSON editor, like VSCode.
• Upload to you own services via config files – like ShareX – but keep them updated – like user scripts.
• No bloat like a DNS changer, hash validation or an FTP client. Just screenshots and screen recordings.
• Tries to cover 80% of use cases - if you need more features for some tasks, try other tools for that use case¹.

Requirements

• Requires a supported Version of Windows 10; 64 Bit
• An internet connection is probably a good idea

Installation

CLI Options

HolzShots is a single-instance application. However, you can interact with the running instance. If you pass command-line parameters, they'll invoke actions on the running instance (or start a new one if HolzShots isn't already running).

Currently, these are supported:

holzshots capture-area
holzshots capture-full

holzshots open-image [optional image path]
holzshots upload-file [optional file path]

Feel free to integrate this into your tooling!
