crop whitespace from an image

CROP gets rid of whitespace around an image

Description

CROP('filename.ext') crops the image in the file and saves it using
  the original filename (overwrites the old image). The extension (ext)
  can be anything IMREAD supports.

  CROP('filename.ext',1) saves the cropped image as filenamecropped.ext
  in the same directory as the original.

  Changes since version 1:
      1. Now accepts directories as input.
      2. Just prior to saving version 1, I added the 'filenamecropped' option.

  Example:
      crop('C:\MATLAB7\toolbox\matlab\demos\html\cruller_01.png',1)

  See also: IMREAD, IMWRITE

  Requirements: your FIND must allow the 'last' option (version 7+?)

Wow! This just saved me a wealth of time, Thank you so much!!! No more opening each image one by one in Picture Manager and manually cropping

I wish I had found this earlier. This could have saved me manually cropping about 300 images already, but atleast still saves the next 700.
