Hm, not really. I've discovered several ways to scroll the window automatically, but the problem is to compose the the screenshots correctly.

For scrolling we could use http://search.cpan.org/~ctrondlp/X11-GUITest-0.21/GUITest.pm or http://www.semicomplete.com/projects/xdotool/ for example. After every scrolling action we could take a screenshot and stick them together when the end of the scrolling section is reached.
But there are several unsolved problems:

1) The scrolling is not the same in all application, e.g. firefox scrolls 50px and nautilus 35px when you use the mouse wheel
2) How to detect the last screenshot to take? I've a partly working solution here by comparing the screenshots...
