  • X11 capture method now supports covered or off-screen windows when a compositor is running
  • X11 apps running through XWayland can now be captured with the X11 capture method
  • Removed Wayland warning on startup and updated docs
  • Scrot is now available on X11 sessions that don't set XDG_SESSION_TYPE (like startx or ssh -X), and works when installed outside /usr/bin.

May wait for Kalmat/PyWinCtl#118 to be merged and released first so I can remove hacks from this PR.
