Does anyone have a routine to parse and render GIF images with or without LZW compression? I can get out the dimensions and the global color table, but I can't seem to get out the actual picture information with an LZW compressed gif. I guess my biggest failing is that my eyes go crossed when I read specifications like this one.

Who writes these things, any way? Do they speak english? It looks like english, but I sure don't understand it.

My company has a GIF license from Unisys, so don't worry about that.
