The netpbm suite of converters is handy for this kind of stuff. http://netpbm.sourceforge.net Netpbm is a toolkit for manipulation of graphic images, including conversion of images between a variety of different formats. There are over 220 separate tools in the package including converters for more than 80 graphics formats. These suite members might be of use: http://netpbm.sourceforge.net/doc/xpmtoppm.html http://netpbm.sourceforge.net/doc/ppmtogif.html As in xpmtoppm test.xpm | ppmtogif > test.gif (note I just made this up, actual results depends on your shell and my faulty memory of pipes 'n stuff). Good luck, -f
