Thanks to all who replied. This is what I was looking for.
The reason I couldn't find it: I had an old version of xv that referenced
docs in a package I didn't have. When I figured this out, upgrading to the
newer version got me the docs and I was able to read the fine manual and
obtain the answer given above.
Works great, but seems to have some limits. I can't quite get the whole
screen in the selection box and get an image. Once I shrink the size of
the selection box sufficiently it creates an image. What determins the
size limitation?
Thanks again for all the quick replies!
This list is the greatest!
