How to take screenshot(using selection) in awesome wm via scrot
-
Tried: awful.util.spawn("scrot -s") awful.util.spawn("urxvt -e \"scrot -s\"") os.execute("scrot -s") and all possible combinations even with sleep. Also tried daemonize. Nothing works =( P.S. All commands are in key bindings, if I replace scrot -s with scrot, all works, except selecting area.

Answer:
Since you have arguments in command line awful.util.spawn_with_shell() should be used. This awful.util.spawn_with_shell("sleep 0.5 && scrot -s") works fine for me.
