Only three fingers, Bernard? Count yourself lucky. I've just been trying to capture a screenshot of an M$ Access mouse cursor that's only visible while licking and dragging. I discovered that to trigger SnagIt (shift-control-P) whilst manipulating the mouse, I needed three hands. After attempting to press keys with my nose, and considering enlisting the help of one of my cats, I eventually managed it by holding down the shift and control keys with an empty coffee mug.

(Ok, I know SnagIt can do timed captures, but I only thought about that afterwards. Duh!)
