Hi, I've written a program that generates images. Currently it writes them in PPM format, and I would like to add support for GIF. So I've looked at the ports collection for a GIF library and found -- nothing. The only thing that comes close is "libungif", but it doesn't create real compressed GIF files ... $ ./mytool -f ppm | ppmtogif > test1.gif $ ./mytool -f gif > test2.gif $ ls -l test?.gif -rw-r--r-- 1 olli olli 642 Apr 15 19:28 test1.gif -rw-r--r-- 1 olli olli 14498 Apr 15 19:28 test2.gif Any suggestions? (I cannot use PNG because I need to stay compatible with certain legacy applications that don't support PNG.) Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co.
