This example shows how to create an animation

Arguments

; this example extracts all frames from a source gif into seperate images

NewtonsCradle.gif         ; source file. When using the /E parameter, the
                          ; first file is used as the source image unless
                          ; the /S switch is used

/e                        ; instruct the client you want to extract frames

/if bmp                   ; extracted images should be saved as bitmaps

/ef cradle{index}.bmp     ; specify the format used to define the extracted
                          ; images. You could skip this and the command line
                          ; client will derive it for you

/y                        ; do not prompt overwrite files
