Hi,
I'd like to crop a bitmap image. How? This is my code for image inclusion:
-------
\directlua{
   image = img.scan{filename="hacker.jpg"}
   tex.box[0] = node.hpack(img.node(image))
}
\box0
-------
bbox{...} seems to work only with PDF images.
use the pdf clip operator i.e. set a path with 'l' and 'm' and then apply the operator 'W n'
where?
I mean, what is a good place to put the pdf instructions?
best pack the img in a box and then put some qQ around it with the clip 
at the end (the usual experimenting with origin), so basically something 
compatible to

\pdfliteral {q clip spec}
\pdfximage{...}
\pdfliteral {Q}

ending up in something

q 0 w 0 0 m 29.99991  0 l 29.99991 39.9999 l 0 39.9999 l W n

Q

this is a clip path: x,y=10bp,20bp w,h=30bp,40bp

(using text XX instead of image)
