+[[PageOutline]]
+Gotcha! is a small utility for OS/2, eComStation, and ArcaOS which allows for the capturing of windows, window interiors, parts of the screen, or the entire desktop, and saving such images to disk or to the clipboard (in several file formats).
 
-Trac is a '''minimalistic''' approach to '''web-based''' management of
-'''software projects'''. Its goal is to simplify effective tracking and handling of software issues, enhancements and overall progress.
+It has options for serial capture (automatically taking a capture every n seconds) and batch mode (take a capture, save, and exit).
 
-All aspects of Trac have been designed with the single goal to 
-'''help developers write great software''' while '''staying out of the way'''
-and imposing as little as possible on a team's established process and
-culture.
+The original author, Thorsten Thielen, wrote Gotcha! mainly because all other screen capture programs for OS/2 that he found at the time were either quite outdated, part of another (usually large) program, buggy, and/or not free.
 
-As all Wiki pages, this page is editable, this means that you can
-modify the contents of this page simply by using your
-web-browser. Simply click on the "Edit this page" link at the bottom
-of the page. WikiFormatting will give you a detailed description of
-available Wiki formatting commands.
+== Current Status ==
 
-"[wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] ''yourenvdir'' initenv" created
-a new Trac environment, containing a default set of wiki pages and some sample
-data. This newly created environment also contains 
-[wiki:TracGuide documentation] to help you get started with your project.
+=== Licensing ===
+ * Gotcha! (as available here) is open source software released under the GNU General Public License version 2.
 
-You can use [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] to configure
-[http://trac.edgewall.org/ Trac] to better fit your project, especially in
-regard to ''components'', ''versions'' and ''milestones''. 
+=== Development & Release ===
+Original versions of Gotcha! (through version 1.78) are available from Thorsten's page, [http://www.c2226.de/programs/gotcha/index.phtml here].
