+I have done some experimenting with dwl on Wayland, which requires a change of my x11 setup. This article quickly expalins how to replace the old [Shotgun and Slop](@/posts/taking-screenshots-with-shotgun-and-slop/index.md) for a simple Wayland alternative.
+
+<!-- more -->
+
+This replacement is very similar to the original combo. What you need is `grim` for screenshots, `slurp` for area selection and `wl-clipboard` for clipboard features.
+
+```sh
+grim -g "$(slurp -d)" - | tee /home/$USER/scrot/$(date +'%F_%T').png | wl-copy
+```
+
+The `-d` option in `slurp` just shows us the selection dimensions, which is a neat feature.
+
+More interesting examples, such as a simple color picker, can me found at [Grim examples](https://sr.ht/~emersion/grim/#example-usage).
