GIF2LBM is a *very* simple bitmap converter.

It converts plain 256 colour GIFs to the LBM
format used with Themie Gouthas' XLIB.
It also saves the palette separately in a
*.PAL file.

As I said, this is a *very* simple converter.
It doesn't do much in the way of checking, and
it seems to have problems with GIFs that are
bigger than 200x200, although I think this is
due to the limitations of the PBM format, not
my program.

The idea with GIF2LBM is to use it to convert
small GIFs into PBMs and PAL files. Then, to
make these files useable in XLIB, just use the
LBM2PBM executable. I've added this executable
to the ZIP archive with its source code.

I've also included my own source code, and an
example TurboC 3.0 project file. To compile
the program, you will need XLIB06.ZIP, or some
other version of XLIB, and VGL20.LZH, or just
the VGLGIF.C program.

Anyway, you'll figure it out if you want to.
