If your original images are screenshots, I'd recommend 'flameshot'. |

Unfortunately, it requires Qt, but you've likely already got that if you run a |

interactive drawing of text, arrows, shapes, etc. |

It's not currently in Portage, but can be found in a number of popular |
| 31 |
'layman' overlays: |
