This is a fairly simple request, and I haven't seen it asked in the last 200 or so articles; does anyone know of existing software on an SGI that will display GIF images? If not, can I ftp one from somewhere? I just started using an SGI this afternoon, so I am by no means an expert; I hope that the answer is not painfully obvious. -- Jesse Barnum Internet: gt6024c@hydra.gatech.edu "I will use all my rescources to make your pitiful lives miserable!

Since you bothered to look in the last 200 articles, perhaps this needs to be posted. The following 3 viewers are available from swedishchef.lerc.nasa.gov [139.88.54.33] via anonymous ftp. Once there, cd to image/viewers and get any/all of the following - gifpaste.c gifview.tar.Z igif2.1.tar.Z Personally, I use igif. It allows for multiple images (window is sized to the largest x and y dimensions of the files), cycles the next image with n, previous with p and quits with q. Menu available for picking a particular image from list of images. Note: igif displays images differently than images converted via fromgif. Hope this helps. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeff Hanson - Scientific Graphics Programmer and Workstation Administrator NASA Lewis Research Center, MS 86-4, Cleveland, Ohio 44135 Telephone - (216) 433-2284 Fax - (216) 433-2182 tohanson@gonzo.lerc.nasa.gov - ViSC: Better Science Through Pictures

This is no problem. ftp from sgi.com a program called fromgif This should transform images from gif format to sgi format. Have Fun! Robert Bond (bond@picasso.upenn.edu)
