    Default A small something that's been bothering me

    Just about every other OS actually makes an image when Print Screen is
    used - why has this functionality not been used in Windows to date? Could it
    possibly be suggested? It's timeconsuming to open Paint and save the image
    there when Windows could pop up a small application to do that for me. (It's
    worth taking note of the actions taken by the GNOME and KDE desktop
    environments for Linux.)

    up.
