No, not at all irritated. I had not tried because all the documents I had cropped needed the same crop box for each page. I was confused about the multiple box case because I was assuming some more general and complicated scheme that probably does not even have an actual example.
I have since cropped "Pro Git" by Scott Chacon, which does have right and left pages shifted with respect to each other. It is also the only document I've come across so far with an ideal (actual text on page) aspect ratio taller than an android tablet (even with header and footer cropped). That worked great! Thanks again!

I've found a number of things on this board only after accidentally scrolling down way more than I thought was present on the page.
You can gzip any file as .gz is allowed. For multiple files tar and zip are also allowed, which also means tar.gz is allowed.
I am having trouble with the -a option. It just goes into an infinite loop, I think stuck processing the option.
Syntax highlighting in vim turns the last ")" character on the line:
(( i++ ))
red, but I don't know what that is implying since the parentheses seem to match up.

(The cyclic thing works like that:
croppdf file.pdf <4 margins for 1st page> <4 margins for 2nd page> <4 margins for 3rd page> ... <4 margins for n-th page>
and the n+1-th page will start over with the margins from the 1st page again. hth)
