Hi..

I would like to use PWC to make a prog which takes snapshots with a philips 
toucam pro webcam.

But i can not figure out how to do it.
I have tried to understand the source code of camstream and MOTION.
But i get lost in the complexity of source code.
My brain can handle it :-)

Is there a bare minimum example from which i can copy ?

Or, even better, is there a library which makes it easier to use PWC ?
Or perhaps someone, for whom it is very easy, can make one ?
Like this:

PWC_init_webcam();
while(go){
  PWC_take_snapshot( jpeg or something ); 
  let_user_do_something_with_the_picture( jpeg or something );
  sleep(1);
}
PWC_close_webcam();

This would be a great help for many people who want to program with a webcam.
And to me to :-)
