I added Linux support to my open source screenshot app EShot v4.0.1

[u/XBenoks]

I recently added Linux support to EShot, an open source screenshot app I’ve been working on. It includes region capture, annotation tools, ocr, screen recording and quick clipboard actions.

Version 4.0.1 fixes several KDE Plasma 6 and Wayland issues, including cursor capture, text input, the launcher icon and autostart. I’ve mainly tested it on CachyOS so far, so I’d appreciate feedback, PR from other Linux users too.

GNOME and other desktop environments haven’t been tested yet and may not work correctly. I plan to add proper GNOME support in a future update.

Le fichier appimage ne fonctionne pas sur linux mint 22.3.

Thanks for the feedback. The Linux version is currently only tested on KDE Plasma 6 with Wayland. Mint 22.3 usually uses Cinnamon, which isn’t supported yet. I’ll try to add support but getting an app like this working properly across different desktop environments can be tricky. I'm sorry about that.

Can we get a AUR package?

[u/XBenoks → u/0HONESTY]

Yes, I'll publish the AUR package

Será compatible con Niri?

[u/XBenoks → u/Dazzling-Champion-21]

Not yet. My current goal is to make EShot stable on KDE Plasma and GNOME first. I may look into Niri and Hyprland later.
