<br>
Things I like about Greenshot (and want in this software)<br>
- Relatively lightweight. Pulling in all of KDE is not nice.<br>
- Easy to use in terms of making a screenshot.<br>
- Easy to annotate and blur out parts of the image.<br>
<br>
XFCE has a reasonably nice tool to take screenshots, but it does not<br>
have annotation functionality built in (as far as I know).<br>
<br>
I can take a screenshot with some tool and then use Inkscape to<br>
annotate it, but that is not lightweight or easy.<br>
<br>
Ideally this would be easily installed via Debian/Ubuntu repos.<br>
<br>
What software am I looking for?<br>
