Using the terminal to set designated screenshot folder.

Prior to updating my iMac I was on Mojave and had a set-up to send my screenshots to a designated folder on the desktop. Is that possible on Big Sure and if so, how?

Hey there!


I'm familiar with that. What I'm asking is if there's a way to auto-set it so your screenshots always go to a specific desktop folder. I take a lot of screenshots so this option doesn't seem the most efficient for me.


I had this working on my computer so by adjusting in the terminal, but that was before I upgraded the software. I'm asking if this is possible with Big Sur. I haven't found anyone writing on it.
