DESCRIPTION

Progrmam apng2gif converts APNG into animated GIF format.
The Animated Portable Network Graphics (APNG) file format is an extension to the Portable Network Graphics (PNG) specification.

Default run values are /t 128, no background color. A short syntax help is provided without any command line arguments.

OPTIONS
