Krut: screencasts made easy

[ Thanks to Dmitri Popov for this link. ]

"Krut is written in Java, so you have to install the Java Runtime Environment on your system before you can run the utility. Krut requires no installation, and you can launch the application by simply running the KRUT.jar file.

"When up and running, Krut places a floating palette containing four buttons: Menu, Rec, Snap, and Cursor. The latter lets you specify the recording area, which you should do before you start the recording session. Click on the Cursor button, place the mouse cursor in the upper left corner of the area you want to record."
