- About xflick:
-
- xflick allows to play fli-animations on a X11 machine.
- The original program was written by Ron Schell.
- Some improvements were done by Michael Pall.
- I just added extensions to play new fli-animations
- which use higer resolution (mostly 640x480).
- Example animations for this can be found at phoenix.oulu.fi
- in the directory ~/pub/bigflis. I tested the program
- on workstations from SUN (SPARC 2 and 10) using some
- examples from there.

- (pall@rz.uni-karlsruhe.de) Mar 25-28 1991:
-
- Lots of bugfixes and changes to the structure of the files.
- The file is interpreted before we display it.
- Moved the interpretation part to read.c.
- We use Pixmaps and/or XImages.
- Added interactive input to change the speed/single step.

-
- The following extensions are from Klaus Ehrenfried
- (klaus@spock.es.go.dlr.de) Oct 23-24 1992:
-
- Add handling of FLI_DELTA and FLI_256_COLOR chunks.
- Recognize magic number FLC_MAGIC = 0xaf12 for newer
- flic files.
-
- Usage: xflick [-v] [-r<count>] [-d<delay>] [-i] [-n] file
- -v Verbose Debugging info
- -r<count> Repeat count times
- -d<delay> Delay between frames in 1/70s
- -i Use XImages instead of Pixmaps (slower but some servers need it)
- -n Don't interpret file before display (slower but uses less memory)
