gifsicle: Optimize a GIF as a new file.
$ gifsicle ${path-to-input-gif} --optimize=3 -o ${path-to-output-gif}
try on your machine
This command is using the "gifsicle" software tool to optimize a GIF file. Here is a breakdown of each part of the command:
- "gifsicle" is the name of the command-line program being executed.
- "${path-to-input-gif}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual path to the input GIF file you want to optimize.
- "--optimize=3" is an option for gifsicle that specifies the optimization level. In this case, it is set to 3, which means it will apply more extensive optimizations to reduce the file size but may take longer to process.
- "-o" is a short option for specifying the path to the output file.
- "${path-to-output-gif}" is another placeholder that should be replaced with the path where you want to save the optimized GIF file.
In summary, this command is running gifsicle to optimize a GIF file located at the given input path and save the optimized version to the specified output path. The optimization level is set to 3 for more aggressive file size reduction.
