NAME

gif2x11 − Program to display GIF images under X window system.

SYNOPSIS

gif2x11 [−q] [−p PosX PosY] [−d Display] [−f] [−h] gif-file

DESCRIPTION

A program to display images saved as GIF files under X window system.

If no gif-file is given, Gif2X11 will try to read a GIF file from stdin.

OPTIONS

−q

Quiet mode. Defaults off on MSDOS , on under UNIX . Controls printout of running scan lines. Use −q- to invert.

−p PosX PosY

Set the position of image on screen. By default the program will prompt for position.

−d Display

What X server should be connected to.

−f

Force attempt to allocate exact colors. This usually will result in a very muddled image if not enough colors can be allocated; the rest of them will be approximated by the closest one. By default the least bits of the colors are stripped until success (in allocation) which looks much better.

−h

Print one line command line help, similar to Usage above.

NOTES

This program does not read the X resource data base.
