Byzanz CLI Help

Pros

  • Super lightweight
  • Works flawlessly

Cons

  • Being a CLI tool, you have to enter each options manually (meaning, no drag & select screen area for recording)

Installation on Ubuntu

Installing Byzanz on Ubuntu is just one command away:

sudo apt install byzanz

Now, you can record GIFs using the 

byzanz-record

 command.
