History: 2003/06/26: First version
2004/12/10: Calibration is carried over to the substack
2005/11/02: Macro recordable
Requires: ImageJ 1.30m or newer
Source: Substack_Maker.java
Installation: Download Substack_Maker.class to the plugins folder and
restart ImageJ.
Description: The purpose of this plugin is to extract selected images
from a stack to make a new substack. It would take one of two types of
input: either a range of images (e.g. 2-14) or a list of images (e.g.
7,9,25,27,34,132) and copy those images from the active stack to a new
stack in the order of listing or ranging.
