[closure-devel] PATCH: load GIF files without an external application
Hi, Closure currently loads GIF files by saving the contents to a temporary file, running gif2png on the file, then slurping in that file. The attached patch (well, it isn't packaged as a proper patch) allows Closure to load GIF files directly, thanks to Zach Beane's Skippy library. http://www.xach.com/lisp/skippy/ Interlaced GIF files are not currently supported by Skippy (but this should change shortly). Only the last frame of animated GIFs will be displayed (yes, this is a feature). -- Eric Marsden

I've now committed this change to Closure, and reorganized the image handling code a little in the process. I have similar code for loading JPEG images via the cl-jpeg library, but am waiting for a stable home for this library to appear. -- Eric Marsden
