I want to crop a PNG picture. I see how to do it with ImageMagick, once I know the pixel-positions of the corners of the rectangle. I'm wondering if there is a way of imposing a grid to read these numbers, either with ImageMagick or some other application that runs under Fedora ? -- Timothy

Mbps is on the borderline for this use, though that may be nonsense. Oh, BTW, I just got my bill and I actually have 20Mb/s download speed. Can you tell from your bill? Mine says up to 40Mb/s, but when I asked my ISP said he was surprised my speed was so high! -- Timothy Murphy gayleard

chromecast: Fedora vs Windows
