Re: Cropping a large collection of .PNG screenshots

I have a few hundred screen shots I want to put on a web page, but
they are all full-screen and I want to crop to the real contents.
This is an identical region in all cases.  So I want to script it.

So, 2 questions:
A) What's the best tool for the job?  Gimp, irfanview, or something else?
B) Is there a script already in existence where I can just change the
crop rectangle?  I really don't want to learn a new language for a
one-time job.

I would go one-liner with imagemagik, though, according to A and B you can have a look at gimp plugins registry (http://registry.gimp.org/taxonomy/term/159) to use the crop tool in a batch process.

Moreover gimp can be used in batch mode from command line http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Basic_Batch/
