shotman takes a screenshot and shows it in a small floating thumbnail window.

       Screenshots are saved immediately. The first of the following locations that is defined is used (i.e.: if
       the environment variable is undefined, the next one on the list is used).

       1.  $XDG_SCREENSHOTS_DIR/
       2.  $XDG_PICTURES_DIR/screenshots/
       3.  $HOME/screenshots/
       4.  The current directory.

       shotman requires a compositor that supports wlr_screencopy and wlr_layer_shell.
