Give an input window for `Trim` (AviSynth)

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Corrently there is no easy way to pass values to Trim() which requires editing the script by hand every time one wants to use it.

Describe the solution you'd like

Initally i thought about requesting an option to sweap the Resize context with a Trimp one but thats a bit overkill and unnecessary.

What i'd like to see is Trim added to Misc and when selected to add/insert a pop up to add the starting frame and ending frame (defaulting to 0 if possible).

Something else i'd like to ask however is a way to get the popup again so when trimming the same video more than once we can just re-enter the values instead.

Explain why the feature matters to you

I use Trim far more than i'd like to and having to edit the script every time is not only tedious but also slow.

Yes, I am aware that we can use the preview window to add cutting points, however this method is extremelly slow when one already has the frame numbers to trim/cut at.

The Trim() call is not supposed to be filled out manually. Cutting should be done via the Preview where you can find cutting buttons at the button.

As i've said above, thats a really slow way of doing things especially when one already knows the frames to cut at. Having Trim more easily accessible would make such use cases easier and less fighting with menus.

The only alternative i can thing of is giving us a "jump to frame" on the preview window.

Ahh, I misunderstood that. You want to be able to put those numbers in directly....
