Introducing a GIF and JPEG to PNG converter written entirely in Java!

Download gj2png

gj2png.zip - a zip file.

gj2png.tar - a tar file.

Using the program

To use this program, you must have a 1.1 or higher version JVM.

To use the program, follow these steps:

1. De-archive the gj2png.zip or gj2png.tar file.
2. Move the gj2png.jar file into its destination directory.
3. Run it using this command line:
   java -classpath <classes.zip>:<gj2png.jar> gj2png <files>

   where:

   <classes.zip> is the full path to the java classes file distributed with your JVM
   <gj2png.jar> is the full path to the gj2png.jar file
   <files> is a list of the files to convert, separated by spaces

   Example (this is what I use on my solaris machine):

   java -classpath /bin/java/lib/classes.zip:/usr/neil/gj2png.jar gj2png file1.gif file2.gif

   NOTE: Java is case-sensitive.

Notes:

• All files must end with ".gif" if they are GIF files and ".jpg" if they are JPEG files.
• The file listing may contain wildcards.
