Hmm... Anyone know how to remove the middle part of an image with imagemagick? Leave only the edges, just erase the pixels in the middle

@Gargron could chain together a convert to make a transparent shape for the middle then composite it with the original image

@troubleMoney Is there no way to do it in one turn? I only need a histogram

@Gargron not that immediately springs to mind

although if you've already generated the transparent inner-y bit then it'd only need a composite
