[comp.graphics] GIF help request

richmond@mpx0.lampf.lanl.gov (Richmond, Scott) (12/22/90)

 I have been reading "Bit-Mapped Graphics" by Steve Rimmer but I could not 
quite understand just how to extract the image from the file. I am not having 
any trouble with the header, just with extracting the image correctly. I believe
that I am not quite understanding the LZW decompression process to well.
Rimmer basically provides some asm source and says forget trying to understand
how its done and use this code. I would rather understand how its done and
since I am not an assembly lang. wizard I would very much any info that
might make it click. Seeing the code in C would probably be a help if nothing
else. 
	Thanks
