This isn't really related to AppleScript...but since this was brought-up, is
there a 'better' way to grab a screenshot than the CMD + SHIFT + CAPS + 4?
The reason I ask is because that way doesn't work very well. Sure, you get
the cross-hairs...but you don't exactly get to control it's movement. I
want something like PhotoShop's select tool...where I can just drag the
cross-hairs (i.e. Rectangular Marquee Tool) how I want. Know what I mean???
Thanks!

Why doesn't this work?
