#GIF data decoder
4 messages in this thread
Is there a program segment anyone knows about that will decode a GIF file
into the data needed to make an Intuition Image file? I'd hate to reinvent
the wheel when it's likely someone's already written the function.
Thanks,
Mike McCormick
Michael, well, there are certainly a number of GIF–>IFF converters around.
PD, Shareware and Commercial programs.
There are also a number of IFF–>'C' programs (is that what you want to do?
Imbed images in the code directly") around.
Given that GIF isn't a 'native' Amiga format, I don't expect that there are
any GIF–>'C' converters here. Maybe so, but I haven't heard of any. TTFN

Well, I know a lot of people have written 'show' utilities to show GIF
pictures. I just don't have the source code for any of them. Anyway, I've
already written an IFF converter.

Mike, you might want to look at DKBSRC.lzh in Lib 5. It has a file called
gifdecod.c which shows how to read/decode a GIF file. I believe this was
written originally by Steve Bennet, so he might be able to help, too.
