Hi frediz, thanks again for the precious info!

No! Maybe the low value is due to the fact I was trying to split plain A4+ pages (750 x 1000 pixels) with 3 or 4 rows of comic strips per page.

To be clear, with default s=140 : the height of images produced by mhs won't be less than 140 pixels.
Yes, I did play with the s option, but I got better results tweaking on the value of m.
After a few test, I got 46 pages automatically horizontally splitted in 30 secs!!

Cpu's algorithm was "intelligent" enough to autodetect whether there were 3 or 4 rows, with only one failure!!
Much better than anything that I could get with papercrop which, besides, degrades a lot the quality of the image, despite my efforts to tweak it.

I see some more filters :

So splitting can be done also based on an average threshold. And vertically too.
But average based results were not satisfying to me. Min is simple and gave good results. But all of this, once again, was just feelings for my own needs. Some may
have other and be interested in this.
Anyway I can add a "mvs", it wouldn't be hard I think.

yes "splitpages" is a dummy in-the-middle cut.
mvs equivalent would be something ok for you ?
Wow! cpu is far beyond my expectations as is now!
Besides, I'm pretty sure that I don't get the difference between mean and average splitting!

Frediz, you rock!

PS: With an effort on producing clearer instructions, I think this topic deserves a sticky status.
