no anti-aliasing in selection

Post by benben »

hi,

would like to achieve the following:
when a selection area exists (maybe used the lasso, maybe selection tool, maybe magic wand etc...)
i need to transform the selection area to only 100% selected pixels and 0% none-selected - i.e. no anti-aliasing, just 0/1.
the ultimate goal is to make a new channel with only white or black pixels, no intermediates of any kind.

all i could find was how to programatically make such a selection, but i'm counting on users making the selection in whatever way they want to...
any help?
