Transparency...

How to use transgif

Jeffrey Friedl wrote a perl script named "transgif" that twiddles the bytes of a GIF to give it a transparent color.

Getting transgif

Using transgif

Jeffrey (the author of the program) wrote documentation for transgif. (In case his web server is unavailable, I made a copy of his documentation.) Alternatively, you can just 'more' the program; it explains itself somewhat. :-)
