There is an extremely effective and simple program to create animated gif's
as used on web pages if this is what you are after. It takes a list of gif files
and merges them together to produce the animation. You can view the animation with
any graphical web browser or xanim among others.
I've been able to compile this under VAX/VMS (with minor modifications to put the 
output to a file and not to stdio), linux, irix, DOS and OS/2 so it's very 
portable!
