I not infrequently see people in these groups asking where to find info on various formats, especially GIF. Rather than reply to many people, I'm posting this to tell everyone that the GIF specs (GIF87a and GIF89a) are both available via anonymous FTP from: milton.u.washington.edu 128.95.136.1 public/misc/GIF87a_spec.txt.Z, .../GIF89a_spec.txt.Z As far as I know, these are complete and anadulterated copies of the specs to be found on Compu$erve. -- wiml@milton.acs.washington.edu Seattle, Washington (William Lewis) | 47 41' 15" N 122 42' 58" W "These 2 cents will cost the net thousands upon thousands of dollars to send everywhere. Are you sure you want to do this?"

Could someone uncompress them and mail them to me (if they aren't too large). Thanks Andy Peterman treehouse!andy@gvgpsa.gvg.tek.com
