SYNOPSISgifcomb [-v] [-m maskfile] [-h] [[gif-file]...]
DESCRIPTION
A program to combine 2 GIF images of exactly the same size into one.
The color maps are merged, but the result may not exceed 256 colors. A
boolean mask GIF file can be used to set which pixel from two images to
use at each location. Otherwise any background color from first image
is converted to second image color at that point. Only the first image
of each file is combined; again, all files' first images must be of
exactly the same size.
OPTIONS-v
Verbose mode. Enables printout of running scan lines.
-m maskfile
The maskfile can be regular GIF file whose first image has same
dimensions as the combined images. Any non-background color in it
will select Image 1 Pixel to output, otherwise Image2 pixel will be
selected. Usually this image will be boolean (two colors only) but
it does not have to be.
-h
Print one line of command line help, similar to Usage above.
Two GIF files must be specified; a third mask GIF file is optional.
