The only way *I* could find in gimp was to "delete color", but there are so many different, after the first dozen it was one or two pixels at a time. is there a "fuzzy" delete color that will delete a range of similar colors? or some other tool? Carey

The edit option in Windows Photos has a one-button "delete background" which can replace it with transparent or white (probably other colors, I didn't need, so didn't check). Anything similar in Linux/Unix? I needed this for an image with a monochrome portrait that had been superimposed on a colored background.
You can remove a background in GIMP. It has several tools to help with that but it isn't a one button click.
