The new version of write_gif in IDL5 does allow the cration of GIF89a's
with multiple images per file.

For MPEGs and the like, I usually use one of the "standard" MPEG
creation
C routines (there are several on the net for unix) and use a shell
script
to send in the filenames of my IDL generated GIFs (or whatever).

I seem to remember someone posted a nice IDL "wrapper" script a while
back to do all this for you, but I never saved it :-(

I suggested to RSI they might want to add a save-as-movie-file feature
to IDL but is ain't there yet (except for the GIFs).

Good luck!

Ian
