Rewind

This is a small tool that periodically takes screenshots in the background every 10 minutes, and saves them as a compact, compressed image file, named DIR/DATE/TIME.jpg. The compression level is automatically adjusted so the file is not larger than 100 KiB.

How to use: After launch, it shows a tray icon. When clicked, opens up the screenshot folder, by default, it is ~/Pictures/RewindShots.

This tool supports macOS, Linux, and Windows.

Build

The current implementation is the Windows tray app.

From Debian/WSL with MinGW installed:

make windows

The executable is written to build/rewind.exe.

The app icon source is assets/rewind.svg; the Windows icon resource is assets/rewind.ico.
