A program to display images saved as GIF files under X window system.<P?
<H1>Usage:</H1>
<pre>
gif2x11 [-q] [-p PosX PosY] [-d Display] [-f] [-h] gif-file
</pre>
If no gif-file is given, Gif2X11 will try to read a GIF file from stdin.
Note: this program does <em>not</em> read the X resource data base.<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> [-p PosX PosY]
<DD> Set the position of image on screen. By default the
program will prompt for position.<P>
<DT> [-d Display]
<DD> What X server should be connected to.<P>
<DT> [-f]
<DD> 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.<P>
<DT> [-h]
<DD> Print one line command line help, similar to Usage above.<P>
