- RGB2Gif
- -------
-
- Program to convert 24 bit images to a GIF image using color quantization.
-
-
- Usage:
- ------
-
- Usage: RGB2Gif [-q] [-c #Colors] [-1] -s Width Height [-h] RGBFile
-
- If no RGBFile is given, RGB2Gif will try to read stdin for GIF file.
-
-
- Memory required:
- ----------------
-
- Screen.
-
-
- Options:
- --------
-
- 1. [-q] : quite mode. Default off on MSDOS, on on unix. Controls printout
- of running scan lines. Use -q- to turn off.
- 2. [-c #Colors] specifies number of colors to use, in bits per pixels, so
- '-c 8' specifies actually 256 colors (maximum and default).
- 3. [-1] : Only one file in the format of RGBRGB... triplates (Each of R, G, B
- is a byte) is read from input. This file size is 3 * Width * Height (see
- '-s' below. If stdin is used for input, this option is implicitly applied.
- The default (if not '-1') is 3 files with the names RGBFile.R, RGBFile.G,
- RGBFile.B, each of which is Width * Height bytes.
- 4. [-s Width Height] specifies the size of the image to read.
- 5. [-h] : print one command line help, similar to Usage above.
-
- Notes:
- ------
- Due to 8088 limitation, on MSDOS, maximum image size can not exceed
- 64k pixels.
