An ultra fast cross-platform multiple screenshots module in pure python using ctypes.
Python 2 & 3 and PEP8 compliant, no dependency;
very basic, it will grab one screen shot by monitor or a screen shot of all monitors and save it to a PNG file;
but you can use PIL and benefit from all its formats (or add yours directly);
integrate well with Numpy and OpenCV;
it could be easily embedded into games and other softwares which require fast and plateforme optimized methods to grab screenshots;
get the source code on GitHub;
learn with a bunch of examples;
you can report a bug;
and there is a complete, and beautiful, documentation :)
MSS stands for Multiple ScreenShots;
Installation
You can install it with pip:
pip install --upgrade mss
