- xloadimage (which accompanies the X11R5 stuff in the contrib directory at
- export.lcs.mit.edu and MANY other archive sites) displayes GIF (and other)
- images quite nicely. It can even put the GIF (and other) image(s) as one's
- backdrop either tiled or enlarged.
-
- And Jef Poskanzer's PBMplus suite (also at export, uunet, et al) permits
- conversion of many other formats to a format usable by xloadimage.
-
- And the JPEG stuff (also at ftp.uu.net) just about rounds-out the necessary
- tools one needs.
