.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B -verbose
Produces verbose output about the GIF file input.
.TP
.B -comments
Only outputs GIF89 comment fields.
.TP
.B -image
Output the specified gif image from the
input gif archive (where
.I N
is '1', '2', '20'...).
Normally there is only one image per file, so this option
is not needed.

.SH BUGS
This does not correctly handle the Plain Text Extension of the GIF89
standard, since I did not have any example input files containing them.
