/**
 * GIFEncoder is a class which takes an image and saves it to a stream
 * using the GIF file format (<A
 * HREF="http://www.dcs.ed.ac.uk/%7Emxr/gfx/">Graphics Interchange
 * Format</A>). A GIFEncoder
 * is constructed with either an AWT Image (which must be fully
 * loaded) or a set of RGB arrays. The image can be written out with a
 * call to <CODE>Write</CODE>.<P>
 *
 * Three caveats:
 * <UL>
 *   <LI>GIFEncoder will convert the image to indexed color upon
 *   construction. This will take some time, depending on the size of
 *   the image. Also, actually writing the image out (Write) will take
 *   time.<P>
 *
 *   <LI>The image cannot have more than 256 colors, since GIF is an 8
 *   bit format. For a 24 bit to 8 bit quantization algorithm, see
 *   Graphics Gems II III.2 by Xialoin Wu. Or check out his <A
 *   HREF="http://www.csd.uwo.ca/faculty/wu/cq.c">C source</A>.<P>
 *
 *   <LI>Since the image must be completely loaded into memory,
 *   GIFEncoder may have problems with large images. Attempting to
 *   encode an image which will not fit into memory will probably
 *   result in the following exception:<P>
 *   <CODE>java.awt.AWTException: Grabber returned false: 192</CODE><P>
 * </UL><P>
 *
 * GIFEncoder is based upon gifsave.c, which was written and released
 * by:<P>
