crosshair appears on import -screen

[jidanni]

User does

Code: Select all

$ import -pause 11 -screen /tmp/file.jpg

A crosshair appears and the user is encouraged to draw a box just as if he used

Code: Select all

$ import -pause 11 /tmp/file.jpg

Alas all that is not going to affect the output. So please have no crosshair appear, etc.
