It does, as someone else kindly explained to me:

        Image ... Palette ... Edit Palette ...

        Click the colour you would like to be transparent and note the
        index # ...

        File ... Save As ...

        Select GIF as file type ...

        Click Options ...

        Select "save transparent" and enter the index # ...

        File ... Save As

Thanks, anyway
