Thanks for the quick reply. I tried XINTERANIMATE, which works simply to
view the file. Unfortunately it doesn't allowed the added capability I'm
looking for. Also I've converted the file to MPEG format, and can view it
in MPEG players, but again don't have the added features.
If you can find the image-loop viewer, I would appreciate your sending it to
me. My web searches haven't turned anything up, but maybe I can modify your
file to add some features.
