There are at least two tools to achieve this goal: Try xloadimage or xgif (now xv). They should be available at any archive of comp.sources.x. xv is being posted two months ago, xloadimage nearly 5 months ago. Hope this helps! Matthias P.S.: I'd prefer xloadimage. It can display much more graphic formats than just gif89a. xv also can more than just gif, but xloadimage is faster, does dithering on monochrome monitors, can set X-background, can do any combination of multiple pictures into one, etc. -- @work: | Matthias Pfuetzner | @home: ZGDV, Wilhelminenstrasse 7 | 6100 Darmstadt, FRG | Lichtenbergstrasse 73 +49 6151 155-164 or -101 \ <- Tel.nr. -> / +49 6151 75717 pfuetzner@agd.fhg.de pfuetzner@zgdvda.UUCP XBR1YD3U@DDATHD21.BITNET
