What screenshot tools are available?

Hi,

is there a snapshot software for Ubuntu? Something like SnagIt?

The idea is many times I have to take the snapshot and edit the image to crop to my region of interest, SnagIt does that automatically and very nicely.

Another feature is to take a snapshot of text (that can't be otherwise copied - like text in a photo) and then parse it into actual text document using an OCR technology.

Thanks
