Re: GIF without LZW

dv>Yesterday, I did a mass RPM upgrade with my zip+, and while dv>updating the packages, I saw one named libungif. The doc string dv>says that this library reads gif, and can write it without using dv>LZW. COuld this be of interest, with regards to the licensing problems? Nope. Basically, we don't write gifs, so we're hoping to avoid problems that way. And ungif is of very questionable help anyways, because the 99.99999% of the gifs in the world ARE already LZW compressed, and we have to deal with them. If decompressing them is illegal for my libs or routines, it's illegal for anyone who doesn't hold a license. -- Jareth Hein | jareth(a)camelot.co.jp | ハイン ジェラス Toolsmith & Program lead | http://www.camelot.co.jp | 開発部チーフ Camelot Software, Ltd. | |（株）キャメロット "It's a sad sign of the times when 'political machine' is redefined to include 'main-line battle tank'" - Ambassador Grossblunder
