Hi all,

The "Image > Convert" command was an obsolete experimental command (one of
several) included with ImageJ Ops. I removed the following such commands
from the menus:

* Image > Convert
* Image > Convolve
* Image > Threshold > Project
* Image > Threshold > Apply Threshold

Run Help > Update... (not Help > Update ImageJ) to get the updated
imagej-ops library.

Regards,
Curtis
