NAME
       ppmtogif - convert a portable pixmap into a GIF file

SYNOPSIS
       ppmtogif [-interlace] [-sort] [-map mapfile] [-transparent
       color] [ppmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Reads a portable pixmap as input.  Produces a GIF file  as
       output.

OPTIONS
       -interlace
	      Tells  the  program  to  produce	an interlaced GIF
	      file.

       -sort  Produces a GIF file with a sorted color map.

       -map   mapfile

	      Uses the colors found in the mapfile to create  the
	      colormap	in  the GIF  file, instead of the colors
	      from ppmfile.  The mapfile can be any ppm file; all
	      that  matters is the colors in it. If the colors in
	      ppmfile do not match those in mapfile  ,	they  are
	      matched  to  a "best match". A (much) better result
	      can be obtained by using the  following  filter  in
	      advance:

	      ppmquant -floyd -map mapfile

       -transparent color
	      Mark  the given	color  as  transparent in the GIF
	      file.  The color is  specified  as  in  ppmmake(1).
	      Note  that this option outputs a GIF89a format file
	      which might not be understood by your software.

       All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique pre-
       fix.
