Yes, the need was for automated command line tool which I can use without requiring any user interaction.

Use option -id or -name of xwd(1) to specify the window, e.g: xwd -id 0xc000c5 | xwdtopnm | pnmtojpeg > win.jpg

To find the id or name, parse the output of: xwininfo -root -children

But I think the bit that we both missed with his requirements is that he ultimately wants to be able to do:

capture-website http://www.bbc.co.uk

and end up with a png of the website.

So he wants to be able to capture an image of what a website looks like from the command line, and not really take a screenshot at all.

I think that's a fair summary anyway...
