generating animations for web with gist

[Janko Hauser]

I generate the ppm picture directly with ghostsript, which is also
used by convert internally, AFAIK. Afterwards I use convert to cropt
the image. I thing this can also be done with PIL.

Here are my commands

gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=ppmraw -sOutputFile=tmp.ppm -c save
pop -f %s.ps -c quit # Maek this one line

convert -crop 0x0 tmp.ppm %s.ppm' % oname

HTH,
