Inverse Crop

[blackno666]

Hello,

I am trying to do an 'inverse crop'; this is actually not a very good name, but anyway: I have an image and want to split it in two images retaining the width. I just want to get rid of a stripe in the middle of the image. Is there an elegant way to do this? (What I do is: extract upper part of image, extract lower part of image then append images again; all this is done by executing imagemagick three times).

Here's a graphical illustration of what I want to achieve:

!-------!
! 1111 !
! 2222 !
! 3333 !
!-------!

should become

!-------!
! 1111 !
! 3333 !
!-------!

(some lines should be deleted and the lines below should be moved up).

Thanks in advance.

Have a look at chop: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... s.php#chop
