- Well, I have been using that type of 'manual' approach to do the job... I was
- just hoping there would have been an dedicated command for just joining two
- pictures 'blindly' together, and hopefully even 'offline', jusing just
- harddisk and not needing huge amount of ram ... The problem is that some of
- my pictures are very large and with my current 16MB fast I cannot open a
- buffer large enough for the whole or combined pictures. I can, however,
- usually edit the 'halves' so that they do not need anything more than to be
- joined together.
