This library provided a means for software writers to quickly add GIF file manipulation to their programs. libungif is a library which can be called in the same manner as giflib, but creates uncompressed gifs instead of ones encoded with LZW. This allows programmers to write software that is capable of talking to either giflib or libungif during the transition from gif to png."
