The PIL.ImageGrab Module

(New in 1.1.3)  The ImageGrab module can be used to copy
the contents of the screen to a PIL image memory.

The current version works on Windows only.

(New in 1.1.3) Take a snapshot of the screen.  The pixels inside the
bounding box are returned as an "RGB" image.  If the bounding box is
omitted, the entire screen is copied.


bbox

Returns:

An image



grabclipboard()  [ #PIL.ImageGrab.grabclipboard-function# ]

(New in 1.1.4) Take a snapshot of the clipboard image, if any.

An image, a list of filenames, or None if the clipboard does
    not contain image data or filenames.  Note that if a list is
    returned, the filenames may not represent image files.
