Both IDL and PV-WAVE 6.0 can handle .gif files. PV-WAVE 5.0 cannot as it
stands, but you can alledgedly get code to make it do so from VNI's ftp site.
When I posted something about this a while ago, I got the following answer
from VNI.
[begin message from VNI]
.......We now include an interface to the ImageMagick
public domain file format conversion utility for UNIX (available from the
University of Wisconsin). This is a "transparent" integration, and
consists of two new commands: DC_READ_IMAGE and DC_WRITE_IMAGE. The code
for this now ships with PV-WAVE 6.0. You can also download this code from
our FTP site (ftp.vni.com).
I hope that this information is useful to you. Should you require further
information, please contact us at: support@vniuk.co.uk

Hope this helps!

P.S. Erica: Your news program gives your email address as mushovic, without
any "@machine.department.organization.country" part. This means that no-one
outside your home machine can send you email in reply to a news posting. If I
were you I'd either fix your news program or put your FULL email address in
the body (or .sig) of each message which you post.
