[ale] How do I do screen captures on android?

[Boris Borisov]

I have cheap D2 tablet with Android 4.1.x screen capture is built in.

quote from forum "It's very easy to take screenshots in Android 4.0.
For the majority of devices, all you have to do is hold the power and
volume down button simultaneously."
