No such animal.

The only Open Source solution for screen capture (assuming you're in
Windows) is to do a PrtScrn and then paste the contents of the Windows
Clipboard into GIMP (or similar) and edit accordingly.

SnagIt may be commercial and closed-source, but it provides more bang
for the buck than anything in my software toolbox.
