giftoppm(1)             UNIX System V(21 December 1990)             giftoppm(1)


NAME
      giftoppm - convert a GIF file into a portable pixmap

SYNOPSIS
      giftoppm [-verbose] [-comments] [-image N] [GIFfile]

DESCRIPTION
      Reads a GIF file for input, and outputs portable pixmap.

OPTIONS
      -verbose
            Produces verbose output about the GIF file input.

      -comments
            Only outputs GIF89 comment fields.

      -image
            Output the specified gif image from the input gif archive (where N
            is '1', '2', '20'...).  Normally there is only one image per file,
            so this option is not needed.

      All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.

BUGS
      This does not correctly handle the Plain Text Extension of the GIF89
      standard, since I did not have any example input files containing them.
