- txtmerge is a quick program that reads the GIFs listed in a txt91
- file(see xanim.doc) and produces a single gif file comprised of
- those images. The frame info at the end of the txt file is ignored for now,
- but I'd like to work it into and GIF ! extension.
-
- Usage:
- txtmerge [-v] anim.txt > anim.gifanim
-
- options:
- -v verbose mode
-
- This is basically the GIF decode routine I wrote for xanim, but it writes
- out the characters as they come in.

- TODO
-
- + Only save colormaps that are different from preceeding ones.
-
- + have an option that compares current image with previous and then
- only save the smallest rectangle that encompasses changes.
-
- + have options that try to optimize colormaps if they're different
- between frames. (although this is best done with 24 bits of data).
- (this might be better handled by the player (ie xanim))
-
- + option for luma sorting of colormaps
-
- + define extension block in order to have frame lists.
