NAME
imslice -- slice an image into images of lower dimension
.ih
USAGE
imslice input output slicedim
.ih
PARAMETERS
.ls input
The list of input images to be sliced. The input images must have a
dimensionality greater than one.
.le
.ls output
The root name of the output images. For each n-dimensional input
image m (n-1)-dimensional images will be created, where m is the
length of the axis to be sliced. The sequence number m will
be appended to the output image name.
.le
.ls slice_dimension
The dimension to be sliced.
.le
.ls verbose = yes
Print messages about actions taken.

DESCRIPTION
The n-dimensional images \fIinput\fR are sliced into m (n-1)-dimensional
images \fIoutput\fR, where m is the length of the axis of the input
image to be sliced. A sequence number from 1 to m is appended to output
to create the output image name.
.ih
EXAMPLES
1. Slice the 3-D image "datacube" into a list of 2D images. A list of
images called plane001, plane002, plane003 ... will be created.

.nf
	im> imslice datacube plane 3
.fi

2. Slice the list of 2-D images "nite1,nite2,nite3" into a list of 1-D images.
A new list of images nite1001, nite1002, ..., nite2001, nite2002, ...,
nite3001, nite3002 will be created.

.nf
	im> imslice nite1,nite2,nite3 nite1,nite2,nite3 2
.fi

BUGS
If the image to be sliced is an image section, the images slices will
refer to the section not the original image.
