+/*
+ * First version by Francois Revol revol@free.fr
+ *
+ * Features and limitations:
+ * - currently no compression is performed,
+ *   in fact the size of the data is 9/8 the size of the image in 8bpp
+ * - uses only a global standard palette
+ * - tested with IE 5.0, Opera for BeOS, NetPositive (BeOS), and Mozilla (BeOS).
+ *
+ * Reference documents:
+ * http://www.goice.co.jp/member/mo/formats/gif.html
+ * http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/pbourke/dataformats/gif/
+ * http://www.dcs.ed.ac.uk/home/mxr/gfx/2d/GIF89a.txt
+ *
+ * this url claims to have an LZW algorithm not covered by Unisys patent:
+ * http://www.msg.net/utility/whirlgif/gifencod.html
+ * could help reduce the size of the files _a lot_...
+ * some sites mentions an RLE type compression also.
