   I too would like the above information.  I will be writing my code on
   an Intel system in C, so any source code anyone can provide me with would
   be greatly appriciated!  I am mostly interested in the GIF format as a 
   first project, but the others are of interest as well, and will get done
   later.

   Thanks in advance (sorry if a similar article got posted earlier, but
