INTRODUCTION
Without options, gifsicle acts like a filter: you feed it a GIF on
standard input, and it writes that
GIF on standard output. That means these two commands do the same thing:
% gifsicle < in.gif > out.gif
% gifsicle < in.gif | gifsicle | gifsicle > out.gif
The attached patch suggest using plain lines, so that %-csh specific
prompt is not used.
gifsicle < in.gif > out.gif
gifsicle < in.gif | gifsicle | gifsicle > out.gif
