I am looking for a program that makes a GIF file from a FITS image for a Sun workstation.
Has anybody heard of such a program?  Please post or send mail to gei@cfa.harvard.edu

Thanks

One way to do this is to use the snapshot utility to make a raster file
of your image (assuming you have an AIPS version that can run on
Xwindows).  After snapping and saving the image, run xv and load the
raster file.  Save the xv-loaded image as a GIF file (or whatever format
you want).
