Hi,
I'm looking for a program to store a Pictures.Picture as a GIF in Oberon
System 3,
so that the picture can be presented on the WWW.

While the newest releases of ETH-Oberon System 3 already include
translation of a GIF
to a Pictures.Picture, I'm not aware of any implementation that does the
translation
the other way round.

Of course it's possible to do this manually, e.g. on the Macintosh I
would use an
application to take a screenshot and then a graphic-converter application
to convert
this to a GIF, but now I'm searching a program that would do this
automatically
in Oberon System 3. We're currently using MacOberon and SPARC-Oberon, but
I hope that
most of this can be done in a platform-independent way.

Thank you for any hints, source code, etc.
Daniel Scherer,
scherer@tik.ee.ethz.ch.
