Go to <a href="index.html">index page</a>.

A program to convert images saved as RLE (Utah raster toolkit) to GIF
format.<P>

<H1>Usage:</H1>

<pre>
rle2Gif [-q] [-c #Colors] [-h] RleFile
</pre>

If no RleFile is given, Rle2Gif will try to read an Rle file from stdin.<P>

<H1>Memory required:</H1>

Screen.

<H1>Options:</H1>

<DL>
<DT> [-q]
<DD> Quiet mode.  Defaults off on MSDOS, on under UNIX.  Controls printout
   of running scan lines.  Use -q- to invert.<P>

<DT> [-c #Colors]
<DD> Select size of color map in the output Gif file. #Colors
   should be given as the based 2 log of number of colors. Default is 8
   which is 256 colors, and which is also the maximum.

<DT> [-h]
<DD> Print one line of command line help, similar to Usage above..<P>
</DL>

<H1>Notes:</H1>

As the RLE format allows full 24 bits per pixel (8 per primary color)
Colors must be quantized to the number of colors as set by the [-c]
option, above.  This process is quite slow.  See the quantize.c file
in the lib directory for the code for this quantization algorithm
(median cut).<P>
