[comp.sys.laptops] GIF file viewer for Toshiba T1000SE/XE/LE

I am looking for a GIF file viewer for the Toshiba T1000SE/XE/LE
that knows how to use its double-scan 640x400 monochrome
graphics mode.  The program I've tried knows only about standard
CGA graphics modes and produces some pretty pukey pictures.

A program that understands the 640x400 hires mode should
be able to produce some nice monochrome dithered images.  It
would be cool if the program also gave you the option of shrinking
the picture to fit on the screen, or allowing you to scroll over it
with the arrow keys.

Does such a program exist?  If not, it seems like I might actually
write some code for this thing after all.

I believe the public domain programs picem and vuimg have the capacity to
use the 640x400 resolution.  I have a T1000SE and use these programs, and
they work ok.  You can find them all over in the ftp archives, or the mirrors
directory on your local system, if there is one.
