The frames arguments are frame selections (see above).

Some things\*Efor example, changing one frame in an animation\*Eare difficult to express with frame selections, but easy with frame changes. Frame Change Optionsįrame change options insert new frames into an animation or replace or delete frames that already exist. In explode mode, only the selected frames are exploded into output GIFs. In batch mode, only the selected frames are modified other frames remain unchanged. In merge mode, only the selected frames are merged into the output GIF. The action performed with the selected frames depends on the current mode. Uses the first frame from happy.gif gifsicle happy.gif "#0-2" uses its first three frames and gifsicle happy.gif "#-1-0" uses its frames in reverse order (starting from frame #-1\*Ethe last frame\*Eand ending at frame #0\*Ethe first). The \(oq#\(cq character has special meaning for many shells, so you generally need to quote it. Select frames num1 through the last frame. (The first frame is Negative numbers count backwards from the last frame, which is Here are the acceptable forms for frame specifications. They are useful only for animations, as non-animated GIFs only have one frame.
Frame SelectionsĪ frame selection tells gifsicle which frames to use from the current input file. Any frame selections apply only to the last file in the concatenation. For example, to merge an unknown number of GIF images into a single animation, run " gifsicle -multifile - > out.gif" and write the GIF images, in sequence, to gifsicle's standard input. For example, to create an animated GIF with three frames with different delays, you might run " gifsicle -nextfile -d10 -d20 -d30 - > out.gif" and write the three GIF images, in sequence, to gifsicle's standard input.īut read as many GIF images as possible from each file. This option can help scripts avoid the need for temporary files. If aįilename appears multiple times on the command line, gifsicle will read a new image from the file each time.

Use the option if you are having problems with a particular image.Ĭonserve memory usage at the expense of processing time. Some Java and Internet Explorer versions cannot display the correct, minimal GIFs that Gifsicle produces.

Mode options tell gifsicle what kind of output to generate. You can turn off a short option by saying instead. Many options also have a converse, which turns off the option.
