Bwrect extracts a rectangular region from a black and white bw(5) format file. The default input image size is 512X512. The x-y coordinates of the origin (xorig=0, yorig=0 corresponds to the lower left corner) and the dimension of the output image are passed as command line arguments.
This utility supports pipes and can read/write from/to them.
We ought to allow the questions to be answered on the command line so that shell scripts, etc., could use this.
