IGV - is there a way to extract bulk information?

Hi,

I've been asked to check a few hundred areas in IGV. I was wondering if there is a way to extract images in bulk from it? They insist on visual information from IGV, not extracting information using pileup, samtools coverage etc - but just IGV. Anyone know how to do that? Thanks!

In haste to be helpful you seem to have forgotten to include the actual link you intended to (and added some extraneous stuff from a previous unrelated copy operation).

My script here has some useful code if you're going to be submitting this to a cluster/running headless: https://github.com/chrisamiller/igvScreenshot
