wxCam is a webcam application for linux. It supports video recording (in an 
avi uncompressed and Xvid format), snapshot taking, and some special commands 
for philips webcams, so you can also use the program for astronomy purposes. 
It supports both video4linux 1 and 2 drivers, so it should work on a very 
large number of devices.

This requires xvidcore, CImg, mjpegtools, and wxWidgets 
(only tested with wxGTK).
