I have IrfanView installed on all my machines, and originally it was
going to be the main image manipulating/light editing program for my W7
PCs, if only because the old version of Paint Shop Pro that I have,
8.1, crashes its GUI in W7. However, I've had to install an older
version of PSP, 6.02, which behaves in W7, because using IrfanView to
crop an image seems to be so difficult. In Paint or PSP, one selects
an area of the image by dragging with the mouse, and then clicking crop
in the former or the crop tool tick button in the latter. Can IV
*really* not do it like that, or is it so obscure that simply I haven't
been able to find out how to do it?

In IV, select by dragging with the mouse, then either Edit|Crop (mouse)
or Ctrl-Y (keyboard). Or Ctrl-Shift-J for JPEG lossless crop, if you're
working on a JPEG.
