gifburst
The gifburst program takes a named GIF file and breaks it into equal-sized
tiles. This is useful if a GIF is too large for your viewer, so you have
to look at it in sections.
Usage:
gifburst [-s n] [-p b] gif-file
Memory required:
Proportional to the size of the largest pasted image.
Options:
[-s nnn]
Specify the number of pieces. Valid values are presently 4 (2x2)
and 6 (2x3). Default is 4.
[-p nnn]
Specify the number of pixels of overlap between interior boundaries
of pieces. Default 20.
Note:
The gifburst program is written on Perl, using the C utilities. You must have
both the giflib utilities and Perl installed to run it.
