Automatically Saving Screenshots to a folder
For example on my wm config I use maim -- printscreen ((modm .|. shiftMask, xK_s), spawn "maim -s ~/Pictures/$(date +%s).png"), ((modm .|. shiftMask, xK_x), spawn "maim -s | xclip -selection clipboard -t image/png"), Qtile is written in python and I guarantee you that you will learn plenty tinkering on your machine.

It's not a window manager I took screenshots using maim and edited them using GNU Image Manipulation Program. But if you're curious I use dwm as my window manager and kitty as my terminal emulator. Source: over 1 year ago
