Description: programs to convert GIF images
These are some programs that use libungif to convert images.
.
The libungif library is a specially modified version of giflib which
is free of the Unisys LZW patent. It can read all GIFs, but only
write uncompressed GIFs. If you need to be able to write compressed
GIFs, you can install the non-free giflib packages instead (which may
not be available on CD).
