animated gif's with IDL [message #11321] Tue, 24 March 1998 00:00

Hi,

I am trying to create a little gif animation using IDL (for those who
don't know it: a powerful data analysis package). IDL has a WRITE_GIF
routine and it allows storage of multiple gif images in one file. So far
so good. Only, if I want to watch my animation with a web browser
(Netscape), it runs through exactly once, then stops. Can anyone tell me
how to change a gif file so that it loops ad infinitum (or even better:
does anyone have an IDL routine that does this) ?

Thanks,
Martin.
