Short: Tool for manipulating GIF images Author: Eddie Kohler Uploader: megacz usa com Type: dev/gg Version: 1.48 Architecture: m68k-amigaos GIFSICLE 1.48 ============= ABOUT GIFSICLE -------------- Gifsicle twaddles GIF image files in a variety of ways. It is better than many of the freely available GIF twaddlers on the market -- for one thing, it has more options. It supports merging several GIFs into a GIF animation; exploding an animation into its component frames; changing individual frames in an animation; turning interlacing on and off; adding transparency; adding delays, disposals, and looping to animations; adding or removing comments; flipping and rotation; optimizing animations for space; and changing images' colormaps, among other things. Extensive command-line options control which, if any, of these occur. Gifview, a companion program requiring X11, displays GIF images and animations on an X display. It can display multi-frame GIFs either as slideshows, displaying one frame at a time, or as real-time animations. Gifdiff, another companion program, checks two GIF files for identical visual appearance. This is probably most useful for testing GIF-manipulating software. Each of these programs has a manpage, 'PROGRAMNAME.1'. The Gifsicle package comes with NO WARRANTY, express or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. --- NOTES: - this is a beta version!!! - compiled using GCC 2.95.3 for 68020-60 with the highest possible optimization level. - there is no 'gifview' in this distro. - set 'stack 50000' before starting. - refer to 'NEWS' for more information. --- catch me at: megacz@usa.com
