I assume you know the size of the file in X,Y dimensions. Let's say the
file is 1024(X) x 768(Y). The commands should be:

IDL> ifile = "name of your input file" ; input integer file
IDL> ofile = "name of your output file" ; output gif file
IDL> image = intarr(1024, 768) ; create array for storing data
IDL> openr, lun, ifile, /get_lun ; open the input file
IDL> readu, lun, image ; read the input file into the data array
IDL> free_lun, lun ; free the file lun
IDL> write_gif, ofile, bytscl(image) ; not sure if bytscl() is needed

For tiff files, sub tiff_write for write_gif. For jpeg, sub write_jpeg
for write_gif. Look in the "data_io" and "routines" categories in the
help section for other formats.
