The gif2png program converts files from the obsolescent Graphic Interchange Format to Portable Network Graphics. The conversion preserves all graphic information, including transparency, perfectly. The gif2png program can even recover data from corrupted GIFs. The distribution also includes a Python script, web2png, that will convert entire web hierarchies (images and HTML or PHP pages). The script requires Python 1.5.2. Original author: Alexander Lehmann Current maintainter of the utility: Eric S. Raymond WWW: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/gif2png/ -- Marcin Cieslak
