GIF is a patented format. It can be (and is) argued that supporting it without paying patent license fees is illegal. Therefore no "free" (libre) software collection can support it. You can download a GIF support module for GIMP at your own risk from nonfree (the last time I looked, anyway, which was a fair time ago). -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Manager, Dueling Modems Computer Forum <http://dm.net> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
