I need a GIF view for the Sparc1 running under OpenWindows or even just X.

"xgif" works nicely. Available from a ftp site near you.

Since I have xloadimage I haven't gone looking for the source. The version which came with my Dell V.4 shows two side by side copies of the image, each with aspect ratio off by a factor of two (two scrunched images). It's faster than xloadimage, so if it works properly I'll grab a copy. I assume it's on the usual sites. -- bill davidsen - davidsen@sixhub.uucp (uunet!crdgw1!sixhub!davidsen) sysop *IX BBS and Public Access UNIX moderator of comp.binaries.ibm.pc and 80386 mailing list "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me

If you don't have it, I'm sure there ) are plenty of people on the net who can get you a copy. xloadimage is a great program, I use it all the time. Another great program to display gif images is xgif. The one feature that xgif has that I could not find in xloadimage is the ability to resize the image remarkabley well by resizing the window. xloadimage can resize images by only by setting the window size of using fullscreen. Of course xloadimage does panning if you have made the window smaller than the image. Just thought I would mention an alternative and mention some of the differences. ) ) -ed falk, sun microsystems ) sun!falk, falk@sun.com ) To be loyal to rags, to shout for rags, to worship rags, to die for rags ) -- that is a loyalty of unreason, it is pure animal (Mark Twain). ) ) +---------+ | Coral | |@@@@@*@**| |@@*@@**@@| Don Dewar |*@@**@@@@| Coral Network Corporation, Marlborough, MA |@***@@@@@| Internet: don@coral.com |@@**@@@@@| Phone: (508) 460-6010 |*********| Fax: (508) 481-6258 |Networks | +---------+

I like xv. It displays on any display <= 8 bits, allows for resizing image, allows interactive gamma correction, and allows for image insertion into the current image. It can be ftp'd from expo.lcs.mit.edu (and probably others). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary Combs Seen on the wall in a New York subway station: Tektronix, Inc "There are no integers n > 2 and x, y, z > 0, NWD Technical Marketing Support such that x^n + y^n = z^n.

Apart from the xgif and xloadimage another gif-viewer exists.
It is called xv and is available on expo.lcs.mit.edu
It is the one I like best. It does a fairly good dithering and allows
you to apply a gamma correction to the picture.
