in thread Saving Contents of Perl/Tk Display to a File
I've only used the Photo object before to create images in the GUI itself, so I went to Active State's website to find out what they support. According to their documentation for the Photo object:
The standard Tk distribution comes with handlers for XBM, XPM, BMP, JPEG, PNG and PPM/PGM formats, which are automatically registered on initialization.
I didn't see anything there about the Window format, or any kind of reference to doing a screen capture. Are you sure it's supposed to be a valid operation?
If it's a screen capture you need, would you consider doing it with a separate program? If so, you might want to try The Gimp, which is a very powerful freeware image editor that supports screenshots (single windows and desktop both), and runs great on Windows.
