As of version 1.48 (18:05, 21 September 2007 (JST)), just using:
./configure make make install
works. Now there is no need to use the long set of switches for configure.
"Gifsicle is a UNIX command-line tool for creating, editing, and getting information about GIF images and animations."
Source:gifsicle site.
Here's how I installed it in Cygwin:
- Have a good look at gifsicle site. There may be changes.
- Download latest source file (e.g. gifsicle-1.44.tar.gz)
- Do the following
cd /usr/local/src #create the directory if it is not there! tar -xzf gifsicle-1.44.tar.gz cd gifsicle-1.44 CFLAGS="-O2 -mtune=i686 -Wall -I/usr/local/src/gifsicle-1.44 \ -I/usr/local/src/gifsicle-1.44/include " ./configure \ --disable-gifview --disable-gifdiff make make install #will install gifsicle command in /usr/local/bin #man gifsicle will give help.
