Folks,

I was wondering how one could merge a GIF and a JPEG at the shell prompt,
or add text to a GIF/JPG file, ie: what I want to do, is incorporate a
top widget called "toprow.gif", and then add the words "Hello World" to
"middle.gif" in a reasonable font, and then add "bottom.gif" to the whole
file, and then pipe the whole thing to zgv running in slideshow mode.

Any ideas on how one could do this on the fly at the prompt?
