Is there a Website Screenshot tool with command line utility in Linux?

I've looked through various such tools, but none of them are to be used in Linux:

KHTML2PNG does that for Linux, using the KHTML rendering engine. We're using it in headless mode on servers.

There is an Add-on for Firefox called Screengrab that places an icon in the browser status bar. Not command line, but either Linux or Windows, and handy.

Screengrab also places an entry in your context menu so you can right-click in the browser and select screengrab. – John T – 2010-11-24T02:01:27.270

We use wkhtml2pdf which is a static build of the Webkit rendering engine (as used by Safari, Chrome et al.) and generates a PDF. Not quite a JPEG/PNG screenshot, but it serves a different purpose for us. (As an added bonus, you can still copy the original text as-is.)

It works on Linux, OS X and Windows.

ImageMagick which also works on Windows, Linux and Mac OSX can to this with the following command (code stolen from my Fluxbox menu)

import screenshot.jpg && display -resize 50% screenshot.jpg

Try wkhtmltoimage from wkhtmltopdf (check the downloads) Its great tool and ASAIK works on windows.
