GIF processing on the old and cheap home computer

(to an anonymous linux user)

so somebody sent you a huge GIF image, and when you try to print/convert/* it with eog or gimp, you’re getting a “unable to fork” or “not enough memory”? well, you should give a try to gifsicle!

quick, does its work, spending practically nothing of your memory.

good luck!
