It includes code to dump GIFs to an Epson-compatible printer +in graphics mode, and several conversion utilities. + +The library includes program-callable entry points for reading and writing +GIF files, an 8x8 utility font for embedding text in GIFs, and an error +handler. GIF manipulation can be done at a relatively low level by +sequential I/O (which automatically undoes image compression) or at +a higher level by slurping an entire GIF into allocated core. |
