One possibility, on Unix, is to output some other format and use the
NetPBM tools to convert to GIF. But that sucks. I make loads of GIFs
for an internal web page, so it sucks a lot. How is it that the
"premiere" image manipulation program can't do GIF?

I like Ed Santiago's suggestion of trying the old idl_gif DLMs to see
if they work. Has anybody tried it?
