selective "Images to Stack"

[Gabriel Landini]

I think it would be really useful to have a procedure to convert only a subset
of open images to a stack (for instance based on the title pattern) rather
than all the images open.
For example
run("Images to Stack", "cell");
etc.

Before embarking into writing a plugin or script, is there a command I might
be missing that can do this already?

Any further suggestions for such a command?

Thanks

Gabriel

The Image>Stacks>Images to Stack command in the 1.42l daily build
displays a dialog box with a "Title Contains" field if the images
differ in size. Or you can force the dialog box to be displayed by
holding down the alt or shift keys.
