Screenshot utility improvements (maimpick) (#1114)
* maimpick delay for proper screenshots An extra delay is needed for {window, full}-screenshots to prevent the dmenu prompt from showing; example attached. As of this writing I'm thinking the delay may vary depending on several factors, to name a few... dmenu patches, compositor animations, etc. * refactor to extract commonly used commands
