This is a simple script that uses RMagick to convert a sprite sheet created by Pixen and convert it to a single-row sprite suitable for use with the gameQuery library. Pixen automatically creates rows of 12 frames each and puts some extra padding in. This script accounts for that and trims the image down and puts all the frames in a single row.

image_path: path to the file generated by Pixen
width: the width of a single frame
height: the height of a single frame
frames: the total number of frames in the animation
new_image_path: the path to write the new file to

Minor changes to encapsulate the code in a Module and change filename to match module name.
