*** ImageMagic and shell script.

  #!/bin/bash
  let iter=1
  while [ "$iter" -le "$stop" ]; do
    import $iter.png
    sleep 1
    let x+=1
  done

If you interesting in capturing specific window - by 'xwininfo' find,
intereesting your window id (hex value) and use command:

  import -window $windowid $iter.png

To quick view result run:

  $ cd $img_dir
  $ animate -delay 20 *.png
  ^C

To compound image together:

  $ convert -delay 20 *.png capture.mng  # license free, multi-image file format
  $ convert -delay 20 *.png capture.gif

You can add text to pictures before compound theirs:

  $ mogrify -fill yellow -draw 'Rectangle 10,10 150,30' -fill black -pointsize 14 \
     -draw 'text 15,25 "by http://example.com"' $iter.png

If screen capturing slow for you use MIFF file format.

Use root flag to capture all screen:

  $ import -window root $iter.png
