Yes, the "convert" tool is available as command line tool.
You still will have to provide the timing information, but for basic animated GIF that would work.

  With the ImageMagick(its magick!) package it is easy to extract the diffrent frames. If  the 'convert' tool is available, I think it's possible from the command-line too.

  But isn't the problem, that the gif contains no vector information?

    If you have a library that parses the animated GIF and returns you full frames (or all the information about partial frames), then it's an easy enough task.
    As far as I know, though, there aren't that many packages that operates on animated GIFs. That makes the task not that easy.

      I am trying to use Ming (PERL) to convert an animated .gif file I have to a .swf movie . This seems like an easy enough task, is it? Any help would be appreciated.

       

      Thanks!
