NAME
       giftorle - Convert GIF images to RLE format

SYNOPSIS
       giftorle [ -c ] [ -o outfile.rle ] [ infile.gif ...  ]

DESCRIPTION
       Giftorle converts a file from Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) format
       into RLE format.  Multiple input images may be converted, these will be
       written sequentially to the output RLE file.  The origin of a GIF image
       is at the upper left, while the origin of an RLE image is at the lower
       left.  This program automatically flips the image to preserve its
       orientation.

OPTIONS
       -c     Preserve the colormap that the GIF image contains, otherwise the
              colormap is applied to input image.

       -o outfile.rle
              If specified, the output will be written to this file.  If
              outfile.rle is "-", or if it is not specified, the output will
              be written to the standard output stream.

       infile.gif ...
              The input will be read from these files.  If infile.gif is "-"
              or is not specified, the input will be read from the standard
              input stream.

MISC
       GIF and Graphics Interchange Format are both trademarks of CompuServe
       Incorporated.
